This is scientific research at its most cutting edge. With over seven million people being prescribed antidepressants each year in England alone, this drug trial is an important milestone in understanding a completely different treatment for depression.

Featuring incredible video footage and testimony from the police and Becky’s family, the documentary lifts the lid on the tactics that drove every step of this complex and tragic investigation and the 'cat and mouse' between the police and the suspects that played out in the interview room, and that caught the killers who thought they could get away with murder.
