White House Farm Murders - TV Show

[wildheart]

Not really one for who done it, but this awful atrocity took place very local to me. Back in the mid 1980's I read the newspapers vividly to get information (as we all did). I was as shocked as many were, when Bamber's girlfriend seemed to stick him in the frame.

Watching the programme, (which is heavily influenced by the Father of the two boys murdered account) it showed a pretty botched Police investigation.
Bamber has always sworn his innocence but was convicted on his girlfriends testimony. This case is one of the worst killings in modern times in Essex. But has never been properly explained. I found the programme pretty shocking to be honest, I felt the actors have done a good job so far. As with the Christine Keeler series, it does help to get to the bottom of recent historical events, but shows how powerful news papers once were in influencing public opinion.

I always felt Bamber did it & still do, but the way this case was handled was pretty dire by Essex Police and the CPS.
If your interested in how the case unfolds take a look at Bamber's point of view.

That does not tell you how the case unfolds given it is a self-serving account of a murderer.

Think it was ITV.

Yep, it’s on ITV. Every Wednesday at 9pm I think.
Thought it was gripping.

I started watching it but thought the cast was poor so switched off.

It was poor but i thought it might be as i always check how many eposides there are...6 in this series which means for something like it it is too long when 3 or 4 would have been more compelling...just the way to fill up TV schedules.

Nothing obviously relevant happened in the first 15/20 minutes.

As you say, as they often do, they have managed to cram 2 or so hours of content into 6 one hour episodes!!

Still enjoyed it. Will watch the rest. Know the ending but won't spoil it for you all.
