David Tennent brings creepy to life, riveting and horrible.
Story of how Dennis nilsen commits murder on countless gay people and got away til he admitted to the police 🚔
Best recent British drama I’ve seen in a long time
Tennant really brings this character to life, a manipulative, calculating killer. Des is a great show for true crime fans
David Tennant was amazing in this show👌👌
David Tennant gives an absolutely wonderfully chilling performance, in an already creepy and chilling true story
Incredible performance and chilling true story
Tennant puts on a captivating performance in portraying the illusive murderer Dennis Neilson
Pacing+motivation left something to be desired. Brutal telling of a true serial killer that lacked meaning but was well-shot + performed.
So unbelievably creepy. Feel so bad for those men. It's an itv drama so you know what your getting.

Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares is a television programme featuring British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay. The BAFTA and Emmy Award-winning programme debuted on Channel 4 in 2004.
In each episode, Ramsay visits a failing restaurant and acts as a troubleshooter to help improve the establishment in just one week. Ramsay revisits the restaurant a few months later to see how business has fared in his absence. Episodes from series one and two have been re-edited with additional new material as Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares Revisited; they featured Ramsay checking up on restaurants a year or more after he attended to them. In October 2009 Ramsay announced that after his four-year contract expired in 2011 he would not continue with Kitchen Nightmares and would instead work on his other shows.
When five young outsiders on Community Service get caught in a strange storm, they discover that they have developed superpowers.
Reverend Granger is assigned as the Vicar of the rural parish of Dibley, but she is not quite what the villagers expected.
Partly-improvised sitcom looking at the trials and tribulations of bringing up three young children - a regal five-year-old girl with a talent for interrogation, a seven-year-old boy who could fib for Britain and an 11-year-old who is gearing up for his scary first day at secondary school.
The murder of a young boy in a small coastal town brings a media frenzy, which threatens to tear the community apart.
Based on the best-selling children's books and liberally splattered with guts, blood and poo, a group of British comedians offer an anarchic and unconventional take on some of history's most gruesome and funny moments, with topics including the Stone Age, the Middle Ages, the Egyptians and the Romans, among others.
This British television baking competition selects from amongst its competitors the best amateur baker. The series is credited with reinvigorating interest in baking throughout the UK, and many of its participants, including winners, have gone on to start a career based on baking.
Amateur chefs compete against each other by hosting a dinner party for the other contestants. Each competitor then rates the host's performance with the winner winning a £1,000 cash prize. An element of comedy is added to the show through comedian Dave Lamb, who provides a dry and "bitingly sarcastic" narration.
