The Essex Murders
This gripping three-part docuseries explores one of the most notorious multiple murders in British history, the assassination of the so-called Essex Boys in an isolated country lane, 26 years ago. It’s a case that has sparked countless gangster films, books, and a frenzy of online speculation.
Now, for the first time, this series will go behind the headlines – taking us on a journey from deep in the heart of the nineties rave scene to the hidden world of organised crime. Told through an extraordinary cast of characters from underworld gangsters to police, plus present-day investigators who uncover shocking new evidence, The Essex Murders gets to the heart of a case that is still shrouded in questions and asks whether the right men were convicted of the crime.
The Essex Murders is streaming on Sky Documentaries with Now from Saturday, April 15.
Beast
Idris Elba stars in this pulse-pounding thriller as a recently widowed husband who returns to South Africa on a long-planned trip to a game reserve. What begins as a journey of healing turns into a fearsome fight for survival as he and his daughters find themselves hunted by a massive, rogue lion intent on proving that the savannah has but one apex predator.
Beast is streaming on Sky Cinema with Now from Saturday, April 15.
