4 part series that started with 2 episodes last night, 1 tonight & concludes tomorrow.

It's the story of Nicholas Rossi (aka Arthur Knight amongst other names). Really interesting insight into the man, his background and previous offending.

I've watched the first 2 programmes and will definitely watch the rest. The thing that fascinates me the most is the way his Wife stood, and still stands, by him given the overwhelming evidence who he really is.

Fascinating 'train crash' TV, I'm hooked!

Textbook narcissist sociopath/psychopath, ticks practically every box (arrogant, grandiose, lies with ease, self-centred, lacks self awareness, controlling, manipulative, no empathy for others, impulsive risk taker, superficially confident and charming). Disgusting animal. And when it all goes t*ts-up, plays the whiny poor-me victim card.

What puzzles me is how he managed to get away with this charade for so long, how do you get past the requirements for eg passport, driving licence, bank accounts, NHS number, airport checks, tax man, council tax etc etc? If I tried it I'd be in the slammer within days!

And as for his wife, she knows, but is now all in and can't face her rather sad and needy life imploding when the truth inevitably comes out, getting his dad's DNA for comparison must surely be the 'smoking gun' bit of irrefutable evidence needed?

Watched half the first program. Then couldn't be bothered with any more.
Just drivel from countless nobody's.
Dna test job done.

Only watched the first two episodes. I don't understand how it's seemed to difficult to prove/disprove it's him.
And what about the tattoo's ? That investigative journalist just couldn't understand how he didn't have any.

I've watched 2 and whilst I'm still into it, the tattoo thing is odd at this point in the series. But I guess that's how TV works - they cant just cut to the end and show us the answer.

We've just started watching this in the last couple of days

Gripping and simply an incredible 'story'

My wife and I watched all the episodes earlier this week.

I would be truly intrigued to know what his wife is really thinking but like has been said she’s in too deep now to change her story.


The fact her middle name was similar to the woman who phoned up the priest just makes her all the more guilty.
