We’ve just started watching this and had to turn it off after 20 minutes. The acting is absolutely appalling it’s making me cringe, such a shame because I feel like it’s a really interesting concept and could have been really good, I just don’t understand why everyone is such a terrible actor in it!?

Are women being murdered by their husbands not controversial enough for you?
My partners housemate (at the time) was on the jury! I keep telling him to text him but they're not in contact any more unfortunately! We live in the village it happened in but moved here the year after so I had no idea!

Keep with it. I thought they same but ended up really enjoying it, great TV.
Does anyone think the Defence Barrister’s voice sounds like Rob Rinder?
I can’t find your comment @Red80's so perhaps you had the foresight to delete it? But approximately 2 women every week are killed by a partner or ex-parther. Let’s focus on the key issue here, women are victims in life and then victimised in death. No one is saying that male mental health isn’t an issue but let’s not even entertain the idea that dv perpetrated by women against men is anywhere Close to this scale.
I didn't make the comment. I was responding to it and share the exact same opinion as you.
Yes it is. Channel 4 make some very interesting documentaries.
Sorry @Red80's that will teach me to comment half asleep xx
I’ve just watched it and they said after two days of discussion the first jury reached their verdict . They didn’t mention how long they had to wait for the other jury to catch up. It must have been time limited though hence the last ones just switching seemingly quite quickly
i never said that.
That's a bit reassuring, because the way they discussed the case throughout was awful.
What's the point of the experiment 'though if it's not played out under the same rules?
Im late to this and was shocked by the victim blaming in this case. Ricky was disgusting. The language he used, the way he celebrated and the way he spoke about the victim. Im not sure if they are still together but he was married to Tracy dalton at least in 2023. She is the mother of jack sepple who brutally murdered Ashley Wadsworth. they were married at the time of the attack. I feel sick to my stomach that he was on the programme and commented the way he did.

A B.C. teenager spent years building an online romance with a young Englishman. Months after they met in person, he killed her—and then her family learned of his dark past. Why did no one stop him?

OMG I remember watching the documentary about Ashley ..... it was so sad..... surely they should of done a background check on people they chose.... I know he wasn't the boys father but even so !!! He was a horrible man.....Im late to this and was shocked by the victim blaming in this case. Ricky was disgusting. The language he used, the way he celebrated and the way he spoke about the victim.

Think we watched the same one! Ashley was young and had her life ahead of her. The fact that Ricky even tho he wasn’t jacks dad/ but knew of violence by a family member ie jack and yet could still have such vile views is just repulsive.
Thank you for sharing that thoughtful article, I have just read it and although I followed the case there was some heart-breaking detail in there I wasn't aware of. Absolutely dreadful and I am horrified that Ricky (who I thought was appalling) is the step-father of a violent murderer - he physically abused his own mother - you'd think Ricky would have altered his views somewhat. Heartbreaking.
Omg I'd never heard of that case. Horrendous.
It happened in 2022, and presumably The Murder Trial was filmed in 2023? So just a year later after his stepson did that, Ricky thought it was OK to victim blame the violent murder of another woman?
I thought he was a horrible twisted man from the offset but this is another level.
Omg Channel 4 should never have allowed him to be on the show, given his connection to a murderer.
Never knew that story! I’m surprised they didn’t actually mention it seeing as everyone else seemed to have their own experience relating to the incident!
