When is this due to start?


Anyone know? I loved the old film "10 Rillington Place" with Richard Attenborough and John Hurt. True crime stories are fascinating and this one especially, not just because of the murders but because of how Christie managed to frame Tim Evans with the murder of his wife and daughter (who was hanged for the crimes) and he continued to kill. I also look forward to seeing Jodie Comer in another role, she was fantastic in the series "Thirteen".

As far as I can see the 1971 movie was filmed actually at 10 Rillingon Place which must have been a bit macabre. I have read that the whole of Rillington Place was demolished later in the 1970s.

Three families refused to move out of 10 Rillington Place for the '71 film, so they filmed everything in 6 Rillington Place.

According to Wikipedia anyway :)

It was on tonight.

Seemed rather slow to me.

Nailed this character Christie in the film.
I'm interested to see how this mini-series stands up against it.

I thought it was very good

It was a great start. I love Tim Roth and he was spot on. The location looked a lot like the actual 10 Rillington place that they used in the film, which was knocked down in the 70's.
