Dramatic reconstruction and interview footage combine to reveal how Birmingham family man Brian Field was convicted for the sadistic killing of a Dorking schoolboy 33 years after the event. In 1968, nobody knew this outwardly respectable and well-liked gardener led a depraved secret life, and only a chance encounter with police on a motoring matter provided the DNA evidence needed to convict one of the country's most dangerous paedophiles.

A documentary on the life of John Bindon, real-life London villain who took on acting roles after Ken Loach cast him as a crook in the film 'Poor Cow'. Thereafter he generally played variations on the same theme. Contributors include girl-friend actress Vicki Hodge,who was shocked by some of the things in which he involved her, 'geezer' actors George Sewell and Billy Murray and David Bowie's first wife,Angie,who was taken by his party trick - hanging several pint mugs off his member. Presumably this also appealed to Princess Margaret,with whom he stayed on Mustique,though her nervous staff kept quiet about his criminal connections. After being acquitted of murder Bindon died of AIDS at the age of fifty.

The story of how double-murderer Colin Pitchfork became the first criminal to be snared by DNA fingerprinting. In the mid-1980s, Pitchfork raped and killed two Leicestershire schoolgirls, but despite exhaustive investigations evaded capture, largely due to a false confession and a bogus blood test which threw police off his scent until a chance remark in a pub redirected them to the true perpetrator of the crimes. The proof of Pitchfork's guilt lay in a then revolutionary genetic technique and a great leap of faith on the part of the local constabulary.

"Who knows how people's minds work?" muses an interviewee here. She's well placed
to ask the question, as the former wife of serial killer Colin Ireland.
In 1993 Ireland, frustrated with his life, made a New Year's resolution - to become a multiple murderer, a resolution he saw through with chilling efficiency, going on to torture and kill five gay men in south London.
It's a gruesome but fascinating story, not for the faint-hearted. Some of the details of Ireland's methods are horrifying, but some are oddly banal: he meticulously cleaned his murder scenes, then sat with the corpses watching TV or listening to the radio.
The question that hangs over the programme is: why?
To help answer it, there's extensive police video of Ireland calmly describing his activities.
This makes him very human, a monster but all too ordinary.
"In some moods," he explains, "I'm quite happy to burn the world down."

The story of Lesley Molseed is heart-wrenchingly sad on so many levels and for so many people.
Lesley was abducted and murdered in 1975 as she visited the corner shop near her home in Rochdale to buy a loaf of bread.
Real Crime does an exemplary job of piecing together the many elements of a complicated case that was to result in an infamous miscarriage of justice when local misfit Stefan Kiszko was convicted of the killing after a botched police inquiry. Only in 2007 was the culprit, Ronald Castree, finally brought to justice after a new investigation secured the breakthrough.
The programme features interviews with Lesley's family, the solicitor who took up Kiszko's case after years of campaigning by Stefan's mother, and with the wife and son of Ronald Castree. Of course, there is nothing from Kiszko, who died a broken man in 1993, just 18 months after his release from prison.

Interpol took the unprecedented step of launching a global public appeal for information after Canadian Christopher Neil published pictures of himself on the internet abusing children.
Neil had camouflaged his face using editing software, making his features vanish into a swirl pattern. But he was quickly identified by Interpol experts who immediately began a manhunt.
The detective who led the inquiry says of Neil's decision to publish pictures of himself
committing abuse, "It's a badge of honour [among other paedophiles] ... your stock in the
community goes up."
The programme interviews Neil's brother, the woman who worked with Neil when they both
taught in South Korea (she identified his unscrambled photograph) and Neil's transvestite boyfriend, who was with him when he was arrested in Thailand.

This is the story of the spate of killings in Suffolk in the run-up to Christmas 2006 that caught the attention of the world's media.
A serial killer went on the rampage, targeting prostitutes in the Ipswich area, leaving one of the country's smallest police forces to investigate. As the bodies kept being discovered, media interest mushroomed.
The killer became known as The Suffolk Strangler and the pressure on the Suffolk Constabulary to catch the murderer increased dramatically. In all, five women were murdered between November and December 2006.
Steve Wright (pictured) was a dark and troubled man. A former steward on the QE2, he was a lorry driver, a barman and, more recently, a fork-lift truck driver. On 21 February 2008 he was found guilty of all five murders and sentenced to life imprisonment. The judge recommended that life should mean life.
Wright is currently appealing against his convictions.

In Christmas 1998, 21-year-old mother of two Lynsey Wilson went missing without a trace.
Her husband Mitchell Quy quickly became the prime suspect, after he claimed that she had
walked out on him.
But unlike any murder suspect before him, Quy went to extraordinary lengths to use the media in order to stay out of jail. He taunted police and even allowed a documentary crew to follow him as he spun his web of lies. Almost 10 years on, we revisit the case, and find out how the police finally managed to convict Lynsey's killer.

The killing of two-year-old James Bulger in February 1993 still provokes a sense of horror. Ten-year-olds John Venables and Robert Thompson abducted James from a shopping centre in Merseyside, took him on a three-mile walk, then murdered him on a railway line. Real Crime looks in detail at how the police investigation and trial unfolded. It also interviews James's mother, Denise, who reflects on the impact of the murder. There are chilling details: referring to James's injuries, one police officer notes that "sometimes it's best not to know exactly what happened". He also recalls that during questioning, Thompson's legs would waggle under his chair when he was lying. At first, nobody could believe such young children had done what they did deliberately, but gradually the truth emerged. It's a story that has been told and re-told, but it retains its power to disturb and fascinate.

Walking home from football practice in Liverpool in August 2007, 11-year-old Rhys Jones was shot dead. The incident caused an outpouring of sympathy and re-ignited fears that gun crime and gang-related violence were blighting Britain's streets. But behind the headlines lay a human tragedy as Rhys's parents Melanie and Stephen struggled with bafflement and grief.
Real Crime's Mark Austin interviews the couple, whose decency shines amid the depressing
details of the feckless lives led by Rhys's murderer Sean Mercer and his fellow gang-members
and protectors.
Melanie Jones recalls a blase Mercer and his cocky little group in the dock in court during their
trial: "You'd think they were up for shoplifting."
Mercer, 18, was jailed for 22 years. His co-accused were convicted of helping him to evade
justice. They whooped with delight as they were sent down, says Stephen Jones, and his wife
still cannot get to grips with their lives: "Why don't they aspire to be someone?"
