Drama:

Little Boy Blue, 9pm, ITV

The murder of Rhys Jones almost a decade ago is one of those crimes that will stick in the minds of the nation forever. At the age of just 11, the football- mad youngster was shot and killed in Croxteth, Liverpool, an innocent victim caught in the crossfire of a feud between rival gangs. This four- part drama, based on Rhys’ death and the investigation that followed is, to say the least, emotive. Detective Superintendent Dave Kelly is charged with bringing the teenage killer to justice but though the assailant’s identity is well known, finding the evidence to charge him proves to be a far more difficult challenge. Brian F O’Byrne and Sinead Keenan ( both left) star as parents Steve and Mel.
