Le voleur, sa femme et le canot

I found myself checking this out as the story intrigued me on how you could do this to not only your own children but anyone for that matter, this story is beyond evil. We dive into the perspective of Anne Darwin (Wife to John) on what she and her husband did to their children and loved ones, their downfall and how everything turned out.

I felt this show was quite accurate with the true story of it, down to every little detail, I quote did like how much effort they put into this show, true stories are often very intriguing and I wish I could dive even deeper into this one.

Great watch!

New four part series based on the bizarre disappearance of John Darwin who faked his own death to escape his creditors.

Written by Chris Lang who created the brilliant 'Unforgotten' I had high hopes for this and wasn't disappointed. Both leads Monica Dolan and Eddie Marsan were outstanding, production values were high and the script was inch perfect. The jaunty score was lovely and set the tone beautifully.

Really enjoyed this series from start to finish, a quality TV drama in all respects, well done to all those involved in the making of it.

This four part show had me and the Mrs gripped. I'm surprised by the lack of reviews for it but honestly everyone should watch this, great story, great musical story telling, great acting from the two mains.

Honestly give it watch.

Truth is stranger than fiction!

John Darwin decides to fake his own death in a canoeing accident, in order to receive the insurance money, his wife Anne reluctantly goes along with his plan.

I truly enjoyed every single minute of this four part series, if this was purely fictional, you'd be busy saying how you need to suspend your disbelief, even in part four, you'll be pinching yourself that it's based on real life events.

It's amazingly well made, it has a very realistic vibe, I particularly enjoyed the third episode.

Monica Dolan, for many years she's been my favourite actress, and let's be honest, she is captivating here as Anne, Marsan is equally brilliant as John, talk about sensational casting.

Next time you see someone walking across the road with a canoe, just wonder what they're up to.

Captivating drama, 9/10.

Parts are slow , but the acting is superb . You loathe the characters you are supposed to and feel sorry for the others . It gets better and bette and was such an interesting story , yet so hard to believe . Worth watching.
