Silk Road – Drugs, Death and the Dark Web: Storyville
BBC FOUR, 10.00PM
This feature-length documentary covers similar ground to the Keanu Reeves-narrated
Deep Web (which was made by his Bill & Ted co-star Alex Winter). Its subject matter remains fascinating, however, as it recounts the arrest and trial of Ross Ulbricht, who was known under the pseudonym “Dread Pirate Roberts” and was accused of founding Silk Road, a notorious online black market which offered its users anonymity and the freedom to trade whatever they liked.
