Steeltown Murders

Available on

BBC One

Set in both 1973 and the early 2000s, `Steeltown Murders' follows the hunt for a killer in the Port Talbot area of Wales, and how in the first case of its kind, the mystery was solved nearly 30 years after the crime, using modern DNA analysis. `Steeltown Murders' contrasts police methods of the 1970s with the forensic breakthroughs of the 2000s and functions as a portrait of a town dealing with the repercussions of an unsolved case three decades later, and asks if justice can ever truly be found.
