Myra Hindley, the Murdereress, and Veronica, the Shameless, are both Bleached Brunettes. In the interests of blaming and shaming the right parties please name the right parties; the Brunettes. Blondes are actively disassociating from Bleached Brunettes. Pass it on. Bleached Brunettes who wish to disassociate from themselves can just stop bleaching and assuming tragic bleach-type-personalities. (See Marilyn, Britney, Jessica, Madonna, Paris etc)

I suppose somebody had to do it eventually. I only hope that this "drama" generates enough interest in the crimes that a new search for poor Keith Bennet will come from it, over 40 years now and not enough has been done to find this innocent child, if his body weight was in gold I am sure somebody would have found him by now. As sick as it sounds maybe a big screen version of the story would stir enough interest to spark a massive search for Keith and finally put this horror story to bed forever.

Is this the same Sean Harris who played Ian Curtis so brilliantly in 24hr Party People. If so hes a genius and the Brady character is a perfect role for him.

I think to show a film about the moors murderers at this time is just a tad insensitive. Especially to the families who lost loved ones.
Brady should be dead before this film is allowed to be aired on T.V. as he is a phycopath and would really revel in the celebetiry status that would auotomatically come with the programme.
The thing that makes me angry is that these film makers can do whatever they wish to make money ,but they should be accountable for the upset that they cause to the victims.

Ruth, If I am correct, recent reports state that the families thoroughly support this film and Ian Brady is the only one who opposes it.

I am in agreement, It will highlight these attrocious murders so we never forget the innocent or the evil killers and it will hopefully teach younger people who may never have heard of these crimes how necessary it is to remain safe

A film about these people is just about as sick as one can get.
I lived through those black days, as did many other poeple in Manchester. I dont think we need a film to remind us of the evil deeds carried out by the scum Hindley & Brady

Sick Sick Sick

God! I used to live near these evil demons, how can anyone want to be reminded of the horrors of what they put the poor kids and parents through. A film! I believe that myself and my sister were once targets of these 2 dogs but luckily we escaped!

Bad news!

i am sat here watching the see no evil: the moors murders, 15/5/06, and im so distressed to actually see what actually happened. i used to live on hattersley estate not far away from wardle brook i played there as a kid unknowingly behind the house where the murders took place i cannot imagine the anguish of the parents who lost there children to those " creations of evil"...but my heart goes out to them.I have children of my own whom i love dearly and as i sit here watching ian brady and myra hindley, smugly denie killed those " angels of god" i am in such dis-belief and horrified they could do such senseless killings.

I've just watched the last part of this drama, i thought it was very well done, acting was very good especially the girl who played maureen, myras sister. It gave me a deeper understanding of these terrible crimes..

A fine piece of television. Apart from the high quality acting (Joanne Frogatt was simply wonderful at conveying the deep emotions of her family's lives)the programme illustrated there were so many victims of these awful crimes, including those who had to live with the consequences of Brady's and Hindley's actions.
Finally the attention to detail of the set was itself worthy of praise.
Well done!

A superbly acted drama. Deep insight to the former lives of these individuals. I think it was right to air the program because it will illustrate to the people who werent around at the time the horrors and the fears of a community. I used to live in Hattersley as a child and until this program I dint realise what truely happened. May the angels like Keith and Lesley Anne RIP, and I hope the search will never cease so his family can have their peace too.

Everyone is going to have their own opinions about this programme, and whether it should have been made. I didn't watch it as a form of entertainment. I used to live in Bannock Street - back-to-back with Myra Hindley's mother. I was no more than five. Every Saturday night, the family had a joint of meat, and I used to take the bones to the dog "Duke", having to go round the back through a dark entry. The mother or father were always very grateful, saying "Oh thanks Son, you're very kind". I used to go back home ten feet tall. One night, I was greeted by a tall blonde lady, absolutely "done-up" to the nines. She just glared at me, snatched the bones out of my hand, and slammed the front door shut. I never went back after that, as it shook me up. I didn't know who she was at the time, but that was my only experience of the woman. As far as my family knew, she was a normal young girl until she met Brady. She used to take my sisters to the park as a favour to my Mum. However, I think there must have been some inherent evil in her to do what she did. The programme had some inaccuracies - for me, but it gave a good portrayal of those dark times. I have no pity for Brady or Hindley. They ruined many lives, including those of their own families. God bless the victims and their own families. I shudder to think that we lived in such close proximity to that pair.

I am struggling to find the right words for this programme. Had it been fictional it would have been wonderful and gripping.

I was born a long time after the murders themselves - but beleive me you cannot grow up in Manchester without being aware of the Moors murders and the terrible impact it has had on the whole city.

However the programme did inform me of many things I was not aware of.

I would not have dreamt of watching had I not known the families were supportive of the story being told. Nor would I have watched if I hadn't wanted to be reminded.

The programme was well written and superbly acted - Joanne and Maxine were tremendous - and it most have been a difficult decision to decide to take the roles.

It was upsetting to watch - but so it should have been. Had I not been upset I would have considered the programme makers to have failed. Instead they depicted events from a less obvious angle which was less difficult to watch while not glorifying Hindley or Brady - nor depicting them as victims.

The actor who played Brady did a wonderful job of depicting the many flawed layers of his psychpopathic personality. Such as Brady trying to appear more intelligent and important than he was.

There is much we can learn from the past and I for one am glad this film was aired.
