### Memories Of A Murderer: The Nilsen Tapes, *Netflix*

Britain’s most notorious serial killer, Dennis Nilsen, confessed to killing 15 people in 1983. Over a five-year period, he picked up vulnerable young men, lured them back to his home and strangled them, before disposing of their bodies under the floorboards. Now, with access to a wealth of personal archive left in his cell after his death, including over 250 hours of never-before-published cassette tapes of his private recordings, this film takes viewers into Nilsen’s world. Weaving together interviews from police, journalists, survivors, bereaved families, and – for the first time – the killer’s own voice, this feature-length documentary explores how Nilsen was able to get away with multiple murders and attacks, unchallenged, for five years.

### Nine Perfect Strangers, *Prime Video*

The retreat at health-and-wellness resort Tranquillum House promises total transformation. Nine stressed city dwellers are keen to drop their literal and mental baggage and absorb the meditative ambience while enjoying their hot stone massages. Miles from anywhere, without cars or phones, they have no way to reach the outside world. Just time to think about themselves and get to know each other. Watching over them is the resort's director, a woman on a mission, but quite a different one from any the guests might have imagined. From the writer behind *Big Little Lies* and *The Husband’s Secret*, this page-turner has Nicole Kidman and Melissa McCarthy in the lead roles. We can’t wait.

### Untold: Caitlyn Jenner, *Netflix*

From the creators of *Wild Wild Country*, comes this five-part docuseries that brings fresh eyes to tales from the world of sports. Premiering weekly, each film kicks off at a pivotal moment – a big fight, the Olympics, the playoffs – and then delves deep into what happened beyond the headlines, as told by those who lived it. In this instalment, Olympian Caitlyn Jenner reflects on her journey to winning gold. After setting a new world record, Jenner’s image became the standard for athletic excellence and propelled her into immediate American superstardom. The athletic feat she craved and celebrity image she crafted, however, also became the main deterrents from embracing her identity as she knew it. Told with a collection of never-before-seen archival footage, Jenner traces her life with new insight from winning gold to making the decision to transition to her relationship with her children.

### The Wimbledon Kidnapping, *Now*

This year is the 50th anniversary of the trial of the first ever kidnap and ransom case in Britain. Now, one of those convicted in this extraordinary crime story speaks for the first time. The mysterious disappearance of Muriel McKay took place on 29th December 1969 in Wimbledon. Kidnapping was an unheard-of crime in the UK, and such was the strangeness of the case that everyone from the police, Fleet Street and hundreds of clairvoyants struggled to decipher the respectable 55-year-old housewife’s disappearance from her home, five minutes’ walk from Wimbledon tennis courts. Taking place in the last days of the 1960s – a decade defined by the rise of a new tabloid press, of challenge to the established social order and the arrival of the Windrush generation – two immigrants from Trinidad were convicted of McKay’s murder, as the case fell within the fault lines of change in British society at that time.
