Conviction: Murder in Suburbia BBC TWO, 9.00PM
True-crime fans will be gripped by the return of this nail-biting two-parter, which re-examines historic cases for potential miscarriages of justice. Shown on consecutive nights this week, the case in question concerns Glyn Razzell, who was found guilty of killing his estranged wife Linda in 2003. Despite the fact that Linda’s body has never been found, Razzell’s fuzzy alibi and some controversial forensic evidence concerning blood in the boot of Razzell’s car was enough to see him sentenced to life in prison. It’s these uncertain circumstances, along with Linda’s possible link to another known murderer, that convince Louise Shorter, head of reinvestigation charity Inside Justice, to delve into Razzell’s case anew. What makes this all so thrilling is that we’re right there alongside her, experiencing the sudden shifts from excitement to frustration as she does. Listening in on Shorter’s phone calls to a mostly composed Razzell proves compelling, our sympathies swaying as he comes under scrutiny. Toby Dantzic
