It is part of a drama being filmed by ITV on Saddleworth Moor, above Oldham, where the real Brady, inset, and Hindley buried their victims in the early 1960s.
But Winnie Johnston, mother of Keith Bennett, 12, whose body has never been found, isn't worried about what the drama depicts.
She said: "I think it's good they are showing what he did because there are leads that will come out. I want Keith found."
The drama - See No Evil - is being screened to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the trial. It stars Sean Harris as Brady and Maxine Peake as Hindley. Tweet

It must have been such a painful decision for the families of the victims to allow this dramatisation to go ahead. And a very brave and right decision, for it would be a crime in itself to forget what those evil monsters did.
It's such a shame to shatter idealistic notions of good in everybody, but young people of today need to realise there was, and still is, true evil on the streets.
