A "confessional" is when the camera cuts from the action of the reality show to a separately filmed 'interview' where a participant comments on their reaction to the events as if it's happening at that specific time, and then switches back.

In the early hours of Saturday 19th March 2011, a 22-year-old named Sian O'Callaghan left Suju's nightclub in Swindon after a night out with her friends. It should have been less than a 15-minute walk home to the house she shared with her boyfriend Kevin Reape (played by Charlie Cooper). However, she never returned. Realising something was seriousl...
Sian was caught on CCTV at 2.52am leaving the nightclub in Swindon, Wiltshire. The next important clue came from a text message sent by Kevin at 3.24am, which was received on Sian's phone; analysis showed that her mobile phone had been in the Savernake Forest area at the time the message arrived. This was roughly 12 miles away. If she had traveled ...

A young woman called Becky Godden-Edwards had gone missing a number of years before, last seen in 2002 or 2003. She was a drug addict and sex worker, and after she disappeared her mother Karen Edwards (played by Imelda Staunton) had spent years hoping she would return.

At this po...
In May 2012 Christopher Halliwell pleaded not guilty to the charge of murdering Sian O'Callaghan, but when he appeared in Bristol Crown Court in October 2012 he pleaded guilty to her murder. He was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum tariff of 25 years.
Halliwell wasnotcharged with Becky's murder in his 2012 trial, as a judge had ruled his confession to the crime was inadmissible in court. However, four years later judge Sir John Griffith Williams decided that Fulcher's evidence could – and should – be heard in court as part of the case. He argued thatthe original judge (Mrs Justice Cox) had been ...
This investigation damaged Fulcher's career as a senior police officer, and despite keeping his job with a final written warning in January 2014, he resigned from the force in May of that year. Since then, the Christopher Halliwell case has remained at the centre of his life. He published a book, titled Catching a Serial Killer: My hunt for murdere...
