    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      In a 2006 interview, Dame Helen Mirren stated that "what did shock me profoundly was we had a storyline, where a house had been bought and they're re-modelling the garden and they find a dead body and then they find another one. And in my mind I was going - that's a little bit, you know, that's pushing it a bit - and then very shortly after that the Rosemary and Fred West case came about and I thought - my god. My god. Not only was it realistic. The real world went so much further."

      When Burkin is questioning a band member at a studio in relation to Nadine, the music starts despite the fact that bassist hasn't finished talking to Burkin, the bass can be clearly heard.
    • Quotes
      • Mrs. Duhra: [At the inquest into Tony Allen's death in police custody, Duhra has forced Oswalde to admit that he forced Allen to return to his police cell when the suspect was mentally unstable] You had an exemplary record, Sergeant. Could it be that in some subtle way you were being tougher - harder - on this black suspect because you too are black?
      • Sergeant Robert Oswalde: I'm afraid your question is too subtle for me.
