Documentaries should not be that difficult, especially when you are covering one of the most interesting stories in British history. You just present the facts in chronological order, provide interviews exposing the most controversial aspects, and make sure you emphasize the important parts, like when the evil gets caught and punished. The makers of this documentary completely messed this simple formula up and made this one of the most frustrating pieces ever to sit through.
They spent most of the documentary glorifying his career and hinting at the atrocities he committed. What a bunch of incompetent morons and they really did a disservice to all of the victims.
There was no in-depth investigative journalism done at all. Why was he never caught over the years? So much more could have been done to get to the root of it all. Instead, they mostly covered the good aspects of Jimmy's life and spent about ten minutes on the bad.
In the end, I was really upset that such an important story was botched. It was so shallow and that is why I gave it the lowest rating I could possibly give. This story will most likely be told properly one day and hopefully the makers of this documentary will never do one again.
