Fred Dinenage: Murder Casebook Complete 1st Season (Blu-ray)

Fred Dinenage takes a fresh new look at the murders that shocked the United Kingdom in the 20th century, and the killers who committed them. Dinenage was not only the official biographer for the Kray brothers (the foremost perpetrators of organized crime in Londons East End during the 1950s and 60s), he has also been a serious crime journalist for over four decades. He knows that with certain crimes, myth can overshadow the reality of what actually occurred.

Dinenage guides the viewer step by step through the real stories. From the Krays themselves to the story of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be executed in the UK, Dinenage meets with the people whose lives were affected by these crimes, experts who were involved in the investigations and journalists from the time. Leading criminologist Professor David Wilson also gives valuable and fascinating insights into each killer, ranging from Black Panther Donald Neilson to the Brides in the Bath murderer George Joseph Smith.
