Loved it, just my cup of tea ! Thank goodness police forensic work has moved on from those days ! One tiny thing - wouldn't policewoman have had their hair pinned up on duty rather than loose ? Anyway, looking forward to the next episode

Watching on +1. And enjoying but.....
Not wanting to be picky but I'd have thought popular songs of the time would be very easy to research. Magic Moments playing at a birthday party in 1955 was'nt released till 1957. |

Both leads were very good I thought.
If it had been fiction I'd be complaining that the prosecution at the first trial we saw must have been ludicrously incompetent to let him get off, but ... seems that is what happened. ![]() |

I did enjoy it. Not to often I like detectives on TV. As banks let me down badly with acting. Esp Thompson . But acting in this esp villain was good

How could he suddenly claim to have been in a relationship with her if there was no evidence to prove it ? Why was there no rebuttal, the prosecution could surely just have asked him for the times and dates when they were supposed to have been together ? Mind you, having read the facts of the case, it''s going to get even more ridiculous. Sometimes the truth in these cases is even crazier than anything a writer could imagine. |

That's pretty picky in my opinion!
I notice people on here have noticed the "wing it" attitude by the producers through their other comments about other scenes! |

Watching the dance scenes took me straight back to my teenage years. Sitting in a youth club, a real wallflower, everybody but me up and dancing and the best-looking boy I'd ever seen indicating across the room did I want to dance.
I was sitting against the wall but I looked behind me because I couldn't believe he meant me. My first boyfriend. I thought the dancing was iffy in the film but thinking about it they were older and we didn't know what to do. |

I wonder if it will be obvious which scene Martin had to leave and come back to because went too far and scared himself?

Why did she decide to take her shoes off to walk home, in the middle of a muddy field.?

Steve Arnott from Line of Duty! He was bloody fantastic in this. He was also a very good pervert in the Ice Cream Girls that was also on last night on ITV3.

Actor Gilly Gilchrist who plays Peter Manuel's father also appears as a detective chief inspector in Rillington Place.

so, what was he charged with ? can't be rape as no penetration or even disrobing took place .
surely his claim of being her " boyfriend " could be easily disproved by loads of witnesses saying they'd never seen the girl in his company at any time. I would wager trials like that, at that time in history, would be lucky to last more than one day. Would that everyone could get the judicial luxury of a six month trial like Simpson or Pistorius. |
