A short, two-part, series about a tragic real event.
It's a well acted show, if nothing out of this world. Keeley Hawes gives the best acting on display in her role as Caroline. With that noted, it's only really the sadness from the real life story that keeps the show ticking over. At two episodes, though, it's well worth viewing. It does an appropriate job at showing how disgracefully let down Banaz Mahmod was.
[Filmin] A police drama told in a rush. It does not benefit him to adopt the point of view of the inspector (adviser in the series), because it does not delve into the terrible reality of the victims of honor killings. It is an external look with a forced involvement of the protagonist. It would have been interesting to also face the subsequent investigation.

This two part drama presents the UK case against the family members who brutally murdered their daughter and niece in a so called “honour” killing. It presents in startling detail a culture that holds reputation above life. Keeley Hawes brilliantly portrays the Senior Investigating Officer that lead her team to unravel this cultural maze and convict the murderers. This depiction is based on an actual case from 2006-2007. I give this series an 8 (dramatically insightful) out of 10. [Crime Drama]
