9 d. ago Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story review – this sordid series doesn’t even reveal the worst of it

The case of the serial killer couple is so harrowing that everyone involved is still haunted to this day. But is there really any point in making them recall these hideous crimes? And why have crucial details been omitted?Another day, another addition to the “point and gasp” school of true crime documentaries; one which adds nothing to our understanding of a terrible crime or of those who committed it, nothing to our safety as individuals or as a society, nothing except our appetite for voyeurism and the normalisation of it. Most true crime documentaries are in this school. Fred & Rose West: A British Horror Story is no exception. Perhaps the sordid, exploitative aspects of the genre are felt more strongly here precisely because it is one of our own stories, and one many of us remember reading about in the papers and seeing on the news as the awful discoveries were made at the time. Usually we watch these films at one remove. We can at least feel we are learning about how terrib...

Dougher spent 20 years drinking, smoking and sniffing anything he could get hold of. At his lowest, he spent a month sleeping on a park bench. How did he bounce back – and forge a new career as an artist?All stories of addiction are grim and harrowing, but Patrick Dougher’s memoir reads like a picaresque comedy at times – albeit one laced with trauma and tragedy. There are hilarious tales of eccentric characters, like the great-aunt with enormous buttocks who killed his kitten by sitting on it: “That booty made all the decisions, and Aunt Cat, she just followed obediently.” And there are almost unbelievable episodes from Dougher’s life: his near-death experience in a crashing elevator, playing drums in Sade’s band, being stalked by a serial killer, finding a kilo of cocaine hidden inside a stolen table football machine. It almost sounds fun. And yet Dougher’s life is also a story of emotional damage, homelessness, self-destruction, loss and regret.“The life of an addict, or at least...

3 w. ago ‘Penn Badgley didn’t know who I was!’ Charlotte Ritchie on Ghosts, You and conquering global telly

She was in a girl group and starred in a Harry Potter film, but it was her genius turn as Oregon in Fresh Meat that made Ritchie a TV favourite. Now, she’s wrapping up her hit Netflix serial killer series and entering her detective era In the beginning, Penn Badgley assumed his new co-star in the smash-hit Netflix thriller You was a lot like her character. This, jokes said co-star Charlotte Ritchie, was “somewhat rude. Because it shows he did no research about me.” If he had, Badgley would quickly have deduced that the Londoner was nothing like Kate Galvin, a ruthless British heiress, who – for some godforsaken reason – decides to marry his serial killer protagonist Joe Goldberg. Instead, the 35-year-old has cemented her place in the British comedy firmament with her perky, subtly goofy screen presence and impeccable comic timing, as showcased in beloved comedies from university life opus Fresh Meat to the BBC’s ingeniously silly supernatural sitcom Ghosts.At first, Ritchie was nerv...
