PREMIUM SPOTLIGHT ON THE SIXT COMMANDMENT BBC TRUE CRIME SERIES WITH TIMOTHY SPALL, ANNE REID AND EANNA HARDWICKE!

 THE SIXTH COMMANDMENT 
BBC TV SERIES TRAILER
BBC has decided to give us something new in the middle of the summer and from Monday July 17th they are launching new four part true crime factual drama THE SIXTH COMMANDMENT on BBC One and their iPlayer. It was written by Sarah Phelps who gave us A Very British Scandal. First two episodes air on the 17th and 18th and then the final two next Monday and Tuesday. 

THIS BRAND NEW SERIES
tells the story of how the meeting of an inspirational teacher, Peter Farquhar (Timothy Spall), and a charismatic student, Ben Field (Éanna Hardwicke), set the stage for one of the most complex and confounding criminal cases in recent memory. It also focuses on how suspicions around Field’s relationship with Ann Moore-Martin (Anne Reid), Peter’s deeply religious neighbour, unlocked a series of chilling revelations. The Sixth Commandment explores the way in which both Peter and Ann were manipulated by Field, capturing the extreme gaslighting, the gripping police investigation and the high-profile trial, while poignantly highlighting the devastating effect of isolation and loneliness, as Field closed in on them. It also celebrates both Peter and Ann’s lives as cherished mentors, much loved relatives and adored friends.

  1. I actually don't mind a true crime drama. I've watched a few of them and like them for the most part.

    1. Should be interesting to see especially as it is a true story that shocked UK. I might watch to Eanna who, for some reason, tickles my fancy. Probably because he is Irish.

  3. What an evil being. I'm not familiar with this story, but I hope he got what he deserved in the end.
