I told you that was good tully *weeks* ago.

If it's still on On Demand (4OD do they call the C4 on demand thing?) there was one on a few weeks ago worth tracking down which focussed on an investigation into a suspected paedophile. It was incredibly difficult to watch, in parts, but done in such a non-salacious and sensitive, mature way that it was just so so compelling. Really well done telly. Told a tough story, told it well, didn't polish all the corners off, but did it properly.

Ended up feeling so sorry for the coppers who had to investigate it - had to search computers (etc) for indecent (and worse) images and videos of kids, sometimes find them, deal with the fallout from that, but also deal with the impact it has on themselves. I'd imagine I'd last about nine seconds in that job before I lost it. And then, after handling all that with sensitivity, getting the bloke righteously locked up etc, they have to go home and be Mums and Dads to their own kids, knowing what they know about the world. Imagine that.
