A VERY BRITISH WAY OF TORTURE

A VERY BRITISH USE OF TORTURE
Channel 4   –   1hr

–   SHORTLISTED FOR GRIERSON AWARD 2023   –

★★★★★  ‘Disturbing…paints a bleak and distressing picture of abuses carried out by the British against the Mau Mau’ – Mail on Sunday

★★★★ ‘Sobering…offers insight and empathy regarding the British colonisation of Kenya’ – The Daily Telegraph

‘Powerful’, Pick of the Day – The Sun
Pick of the Day – The Observer
Pick of the Day – The Guardian
Sunday Choice – Radio Times

Between 1952 and 1960, Britain fought a vicious war in Kenya against the Mau Mau – a movement fighting for Kenyan independence from colonial rule. It was an exceptionally bloody conflict, with atrocities committed on both sides. For decades, however, many of the worst abuses carried out by British colonial forces have been kept hidden.

Featuring testimony from some of the last remaining Mau Mau survivors, the film combines recon, archive and new documentary evidence to give for the first time a full picture of how systemic torture was used and authorised by British officials.

THE REAL MANHUNT: THE NIGHT STALKER

THE REAL MAN HUNT: THE NIGHT STALKER

ITV   –   1hr

For 17 years, a serial rapist known as ‘The Night Stalker’ terrorised the elderly population of South London. Yet although the perpetrator is believed to have committed over 100 offences, the case went largely underneath the public radar – a fact many attribute to the relative invisibility of the elderly victims.

Featuring interviews with senior detectives who worked on the case, this film unravels the hidden story behind the 17 year hunt for the Night Stalker – a story featuring agonising near misses, allegations of racism and a litany of police mistakes.

Finally, the film brings to life how how a 17 day stakeout – one of the largest the Met police has ever staged – finally brought the offender to justice.

Presented by Susanna Reid.

ARABIA with Levison Wood

ARABIA with Levinson Wood   –   TV Series

Sky Vision  |  Discovery Channel   –   1x 1hr

Levison Wood immerses himself in the worlds and cultures he visits like no other travel guide. In his fifth series with Sky Vision, he once again embarks on a rarely ventured route through challenging environments into remote corners of a little-understood land. Arabia. Beautifully filmed and with the warm and engaging Lev as our guide, Arabia tells the real story of the Middle East through its people. The series explores the lives and hopes of an eclectic range of characters – Syrian grandmothers, Iraqi snipers, shepherds, drug dealers, freedom fighters and nomads – and we hear Levison reflect throughout on how his preconceptions may have changed or remained during his most extraordinary adventure yet. With his elite military training, Levison has the necessary skills to tackle the very toughest challenges. And while he uses these skills to access remote communities and potentially hostile urban worlds, this is far from a simple survivalist story. Instead, Lev puts the people and the cultures he encounters at the heart of every story. Arabia is his most gripping, nuanced and ultimately heart-warming series to date, with majestic landscapes and ancient histories providing the backdrop to a fascinating and authentic depiction of the cultural diversity of the Middle East. From Iraq, the Gulf States, Oman and Yemen to Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Palestine, Israel and Syria Levison ends his journey on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in Lebanon.

With all episodes edited concurrently, Jon cut Levison’s trip from Oman, sneaking into Yemen via the back door. Wood’s mission is to immerse himself in the lives of locals and challenge the myths and stereotypes that plague this ancient land.
