Railway Murders

I have never in my life seen a TV show that moves more ponderously than this. I don't like being so critical, but this show is the very definition of "mind numbing." If you're looking for a potent soporific, look no further! The presenters speak soooo slowly, and repeat the same information over and over again. It's like a five minute script that has been stretched to an hour. It reinforces every negative stereotype I've ever had of glacial British documentaries. And there are fully six episodes of this exercise in watching paint dry! I can't imagine anyone having the mental stamina to hang in there to the bitter end. For mindless entertainment, this is gold!

If you liked Murder Maps, this is from the same stable. Thoughtfully presented, carefully researched and packed with historical footage and interesting expert commentary.
