Dramamentary?

The first thing any form of visual entertainment should do is engage the viewer. This show totally fails because no one involved in the production seems to have a clue what the show wants to be and more to the point, apparently doesn't care.

Make a Drama or a Documentary, not this...

This is a strange set up for a show.

Talking to families is emotional and must have been hard for the families.

But the scenes of the two "gathering information" are cringe inducing, poorly acted staged and scripted moments.

Why? Just make a documentary, skip all the faux nonsense.

Odd

Why? Just why? Scripted 'documentary' Production is awful. Camera doesn't keep still Don't waste your time.

Ham acting...

This would be laughable we're it not factual. It appears the American habit of turning documentaries into low rate drama's has reached the UK. With the amount of camera angles, there must be so many takes of the same scenes, pained expressions and it sounds scripted. Awful. You're dealing with real life dead victims here, the way this is filmed makes it feel like a lunchtime soap opera. Shameful.

Absolutely awful

If I could give a minus score I would, Very disrespective to the families.

No conclusion just maybes and what if this happened. Even the music is meant to sound like "Silent Witness" really shocking anyone who make or be part of this.
