The presentation of the timeline is good and there is indeed a story to be told.. The rest felt amateurish and more like an exercise in self-promotion by two women who come across as 'schoolgirl sleuths'. They put themselves at the front and centre to the point that this felt more like a story about them instead of the story of a tragedy and the attempts to bring the guilty to justice.
What we get is a gossipy whodunnit. The pattern is we get introduced to a suspect, our sleuths then lead the viewer along by excitedly throwing ideas at each other on why this person could have been responsible then reveal this person had nothing to do with it. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat, and so on.
The perpetrators get revealed in episode 4, but the first thing we are told is how our 'heroines' are waiting with bated breath for the announcements. Shouldn't this moment belong to the families?
There are many good true crime programmes out there. Life's too short to waste your time getting strung along by these two indulging themselves on their little murder adventure. This was a huge wasted opportunity to dig under the surface and provide something informative and enlightening.
