Episode 1: A History of Control
A woman is at work. Sheβs having lunch with her colleague when she hears a customer arrive. But itβs her ex-partner. And heβs got a gun.
Presented by actor Amybeth McNulty (Anne with an E, Stranger Things) this eight-part series investigates why women continue to be murdered and what could be done to prevent it.
Professor Jane Monckton Smith guides us through the βhomicide timelineβ; the pattern of behaviour she has identified in domestic homicides that, if spotted early enough, could help vulnerable and at-risk women keep themselves safe.
From the multi award-winning team behind Assume Nothing: Rape Trial, the series examines eight real-life cases of murder, and asks whether recognising a pattern of behaviour could save lives.
