Possibly the greatest role David has played to date. Utterly creepy whilst deadly smart. A gripping drama that will make you really question what mankind is capavle of at the worst of times.

I need to watch some 10th Doctor Who episodes now, to bring back image of David's smiling face into my head, and replace this deeply disturbing and blood chilling character from DES. David Tennant blew me away with his performance - he managed to be more creepy and disturbing than the actual Dennis Nielsen. It sucks out all the joy from this world, and leaves you speechless and broken. Wonderful performance!!!! The whole cast deserves standing ovation for this show. Well worth watching this one.

I know - he is a great actor. But this series proofs more. Because he gives a brilliant game of nuances , fascinating, off course, but , more important convincing in the most creepy way. Portrait of a serial killer is the soft definition. But you feel , slice by scene than it is more. A high demonstration of unique science to explore the character in fair and precise manner. In this case, the performance of David Tennant becomes a story itself.

The Story is Dennis Nilsen, the infamous serial killer, who had a particular type of victim.

It's a well known story, brought to life vividly in this terrific drama, it's an uncomfortable watch at times, he truly was a monster.

David Tennant, I have no doubts at all that he will be winning a BAFTA for his portrayal here, he proves once again that he is an incredibly talented actor. He is incredible, but also has an uncanny resemblance to Nilsen.

There have been a few real life dramatisations, to think of White House Farm, and a few others, this is arguably the best of them. Mays and Watkins are great also.

Terrific,10/10.

Good drama about a serial killer Dennis Nielsen who was arrested in 1983.I enjoyed it and thought acting David Tennant played the part really well.
