Pick of the week
Theatre of Crime
Hosts Pearl Mackie, Emma Sidi and Kiell Smith-Bynoe claim to be “reinvestigating” the infamous 1907 “Camden Town Murder” – via “reimagining key moments” (read: inventing dialogue) with hammy accents. True crime can feel exploitative, and given that a real person – 22-year-old Emily Dimmock – died in this case, not all listeners will find an attempt to turn it into chucklesome light entertainment to be in the best taste.
