The High Price of a Confession

MON SEP 20 | 9 PM EXPLORE

BritWit Club Program Update:

In 2011, Detective Steve Fulcher (Martin Freeman) was trying to find Sian O'Callaghan, a young woman who had gone missing after a night out with friends. While interviewing the main suspect in her disappearance, taxi driver Christopher Halliwell, the conversation took a life-changing turn when Halliwell confessed to a murder from years earlier.

Based on a true story, A CONFESSION focuses on the fallout for the victims' families and for Detective Fulcher, who eschewed police protocol in the hopes of finding Sian alive and catching a murderer. Written by Oscar-nominee Jeff Pope (Philomena), the series asks difficult questions about modern policing and the search for the truth. Check out the trailer!
