Murder 24/7 is on the iPlayer
A friend recommended it
I watched the first episode last night
I thought it was really interesting
Murder 24/7 was filmed with the Essex Police and follows real-life investigations into murders and crimes.
In the first three episodes, viewers see the investigation into the murder of 36-year-old Courtney Valentine-Brown, who was found stabbed in a flat in Southend-on-Sea.
What struck me was how conditioned we have become in books, TV and films to murders being solved by a dedicated detective with a few sidekicks
The reality, if this doc is anything to go by, is that there are massive teams investigating murders without one focal point - they are also fairly thorough and very hard working but quite an uninspired and unispiring bunch (might be unfair as I've only seen the first episode) - however diligence and the stupidity of the criminals seems to yield results
The interviews with suspects are particularly surprising
I can't wait to get back to it tonight
