First of all, I am not convinced he did or didn't do it - So this is a review from someone who has not taken a side.
Episode 1 100% 'opinions' by family & friends (= them cashing on on her death/murder - seems a bit vulgar to me.) 0% evidence shown or reviewed.
Episode 2: Miss Fry chanting "me, poor victim" once again. She met him 4! Times. Why come on to this? Desperate need for attention? Why not get a therapist instead if she is traumatised so much? My eyes cannot roll enough. Again 0% evidence reviewed, no interviews with professionals, forensic scientists, pathologists or the like.
Episode 3 People (not psychologists or behavioural analysts) interpreting his 'behaviour'. Trial gossip, nothing new - every sane, rational person would have deduced this should have ended in a mistrial, but hey who cares right? As long as the media can milk something it's all good. We have Fry again.. talking about herself, she cares for her reputation, talking about her 'relationship' - which I would call at best 'a fling'.
3/4 of the overall content is archive/news footage we've already seen. They might as well have made a 3hr Nancy Grace special about this case - might have been more entertaining at least. Netflix, seriously... there were times were you put emphasis on quality and not 'gossip'.
Overall this left me with a yuckie taste & wasted time.
I'm waiting for "Face to Face"..

I was looking forward to this.
4 episods into this: major disappointment.
I have nothing against Piers Morgan, but this should have been called: "Make Piers believe".
He interrupts, he is belligerent, he is confrontational.
There are no clever questions that allow the viewing public to discern for themselves where the truth lies & the focus is not on showing 'opposing' facts of the crime.
Piers ends the interviews with "I don't believe you" - making himself the jury, judge & executioner.
Then we get a mini post-interview with Piers himself in which he again states how he doesn't believe them, how he interviewed soooooo many killers and how he is able to spot lies... it's just cringe & makes him look full of himself.
Imo he could use a bit humility - He appears quite arrogant here.

Blurry re enactments of a person near or on the phone or something somewhere, screenshots of phones & texts.. that's 80 % of what we see. Make it 85.
Ridiculous producion presenting daft people offering no real insight into or solution to this wide spread problem. No interviews about current laws and how to change this issue. Just a blah copy paste statement by police at the end.
But it's important you stylize it as much as you can, right?
Idk what's happening but British docus seem to be going downhill regarding content & presentation.
It's getting ridiculous.
Don't make yourself watch or finish it... there is nothing really to gain from it.
