Chronology
Delia Balmer, an agency nurse, met Sweeney, who confessed to killing his ex-girlfriend. He attacked her before evading capture. Balmer rebuilt her life to confront Sweeney seven years later after he was arrested for another murder.. Based on a true crime story. The bodies were dumped in canals in Rotterdam (not Amsterdam) and London.. Top notch performances from everyone involved, made for uncomfortable viewing at times, but also gripping television. I often wince at real life dramas because they sweeten things for one side or the other. In this case you felt they gave a fair representation of both sides. I don’t remember the original story so it felt quite fresh for me. We binged the program, and never intended to, so that says something. The fact it felt so underwhelming made it even more believable and the pacing as we moved through the key components of the story maintained the tension, I would recommend this as a quality piece of TV.
