Description

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Powerful television drama based on a true story. Between 1963 and 1965, Ian Brady (Sean Harris) and Myra Hindley (Maxine Peake) abducted, sexually assaulted and brutally murdered five children, disposing of the bodies in shallow graves across Manchester's Saddleworth Moor. The chilling story is told from the view of Hindley's sister, Maureen Smith (Joanne Froggatt). AMAZON.CO.UK REVIEW Powerful and thought-provoking drama based on one of the most shocking crimes of the 20th century. This is the chilling story of child killers Ian Brady and Myra Hindley and how they were finally brought to justice. Convicted of the torture and killing of five youngsters, the Moors Murderers remain two of the most hated figures in Britain. See No Evil reveals the untold story and is based on two years of intensive research and interviews with detectives and the key trial witness. It is produced in consultation with the murdered children’s relatives. Starring Maxine Peak (Shameless), Sean Harris (24 Hour Party People), Joanne Froggatt (Spooks) and George Costigan (Casualty). "Even 40 years on, it's hard to think of a subject more likely to raise hackles and misfire. So much braver, then, for ITV to tackle it; and so much more admirable for it to have been done so superbly." - The Daily Telegraph "While it was undoubtedly grim viewing, it had a compulsive grip that I simply couldn't shake off." - Daily Express "...Peake's performance (as Myra Hindley) was eerily convincing." - The Mirror
