I think he gets damages, he went through an appalling time
Our media is really evil, it incites the most appalling hate just to sell newspapers I think the Volvo facing the wrong way, the only thing near evidence Someone must have lied there, so I assume they got the other bloke, who said it was the other way I have forgotten it |

By:
I thought him correcting the police officers spelling was a really bad move
he might as well have signed his own confession there ![]() |

I thought Pistorius was guilty though, he may be found guilty yet
although I don't like prosecution appeals, it is a very vindictive form of justice there was plenty of evidence against him all right! |

As a character study it was an excellent drama, the second-part tonight should also be very good - when he has to deal with his life and the destructive results after being vilified by the press. He did go through an appalling time and what evidence did the police have on him, it was more like arrest the local oddball. A kinder description would be to call him eccentric, but no way did he ever deserve to get treated like that. The press totally messed-up to wrongly focus on him as the main suspect ! And his quiet life as a retired schoolteacher was turned completely upside down.

Heard him on radio Re : This programme ,the guy who directs it is a former pupil of his ,who he started on his career while at school ..
He used to order films for the class to watch during lessons ,only reason he ordered them was because he wanted to watch them himself .. Most of what is being shown is 100 % true ,and tbh unbelievable... I hope he got the lot off both the media and the police ,with a lesser person the outcome could have been tragic .. |

Jefferies and the actor who plays him were both on BBC Breakfast this week, and Jefferies said initially he had some reservations about this drama being made, but said afterwards he felt it was an accurate account and he was completely happy with it, and also because it was respectful to the girl's family.
|
|
By:
well he is a bull sh1tter then, that is why I never bothered to watch it what is the point if half of it is just poetic license?
|
|
By:
Just started watching it now. Its compelling viewing and the actor playing Jeffries is brilliant but I am finding myself watching what is coming across as a black comedy.

By:
Yes, Jason Watkins is great. Does some great finger positioning later. May seem funny as he's so oddball.

By:
seems harsh on the family of the murdered girl
despite being an excellent watch for us, plods squallid relationship with gutter press for financial reward hinted at last night, i wonder if the phone hackers were at it too |
|
By:
They should make more progs like this after the police have messed up.
To be honest they could have a channel to themselves the useless fecks. |

By:
The wheels fell off when he phoned the police because he felt he MAY have heard something & was trying to be of some help, in other words by telling the police anything it seems your putting yourself in the frame

".... in other words by telling the police anything it seems your putting yourself in the frame."
and telling the police to say "please" and correcting their spelling didn't help either I suppose, and having weird hair ! seriously, it was a compelling drama and very well done. |
