MURDER CASE

BAFTA & RTS WINNING. 

6 PART DOCUMENTARY SERIES

FIRECREST FILMS FOR BBC

With unprecedented access to Police Scotland’s Major Investigations Team, this observational series goes behind the scenes on some of the most serious and complex and murder investigations in the country. 

​

Filmed over the course of 15 months, Murder Case follows an extraordinary team of detectives as they investigate high profile murder cases, starting with the disappearance of Julie Reilly.

PRESS

"This compelling, sombre three-part series spends time with Police Scotland's major investigations team.. The programme astutely offers almost as much time to Reilly's family as it does to the investigation, with the 47-year-old's daughter, Tiona, recalling her mother with fondness. "She just always had a way of making you feel good about yourself."

The Times

​

"A perfect balance between forensic police work and the raw emotion of Julie’s family as the awful truth becomes clear."

The Guardian

​​

"Gaining unprecedented access to the investigation, this powerful series... is about frustration, determination and resourcefulness. It's about the often desperate process, but it's also about the faith and hope that society has an answer to those who take someone's life away."

The Herald
