Banaz' body is found in Birmingham following a lead from a phone tap, but the DNA evidence is destroyed when a water pipe bursts. More evidence from the phones lead to Banaz' father and uncle standing trial, where their solicitors mount a convincing defence - until Bekhal courageously steps forward to deliver evidence from behind a screen. Meanwhile, Caroline tries to arrange for the last two perpetrators to be extradited from Iraq to the UK.

7/10

A short, two-part, series about a tragic real event.

It's a well acted show, if nothing out of this world. Keeley Hawes gives the best acting on display in her role as Caroline. With that noted, it's only really the sadness from the real life story that keeps the show ticking over. At two episodes, though, it's well worth viewing. It does an appropriate job at showing how disgracefully let down Banaz Mahmod was.

You've reached the end.
