    I hadn't seen this before but I just watched the McGrath episode. It was great TV.

    He was so smug and it was wonderful to see him caught out.

    I'll be watching more of this. :)

    Brecknock standing next to the fire place in Meath had us rolling. It's just a shame the 'girls' didn't show him that picture while he was lecturing them on the French having invented flat pack.

    Don't misquote him. They are masters of it. Didn't say that they invented it.

    Best one I've seen in ages and I love 24H. It's mandatory viewing, along with Taskmaster, for us.

    The one where the guy was shipping drugs in from the continent last week was very good. Experienced criminal and you could see he was trying to figure out what the cops had on him when they were questioning him. Real cat and mouse stuff.

    The episode where they found the woman's body with her throat slashed and arrested her odd eccentric partner initially was very good.

    It was the first episode of the last series before this one.

    Caught up with the latest episode this evening, jaysus lads he’s a bit thick isn’t he but it was good viewing and I then watched U.K. gogglebox where the episode also featured and the reactions from them were hilarious
    8 long years to think about that f*ck up now lol, imagining him in prison is making me laugh
    He was also convicted for fairly serious mortgage fraud hence the sentence being so long.
    Its a terrific series no doubt.

    Just reading over some of the newspaper reports over a cuppa, the judge said the The offences were sophisticated, detailed, well planned and carried out over a long period of time

    https://www.google.ie/amp/s/www.thesun.co.uk/news/8817985/doctor-accuses-cop-fraud-24-hours-police-custody/amp/

    If he was half as sophisticated as he was arrogant he might have gotten away with it.

    Your average junkie housebreaker is better at hiding their tracks than this clown.

    Great series. The camera discovery in that case is a real moment.

    Your one in the latest one is a right piece of work.

    Yes saw that one which was fraud and he was a d*ck. This woman is evil conspiring to try to murder an ex manipulating a few boyfriends to do so. It was all the feigning of the medical problems that probably annoyed me the most.

    Good Old Dr McGgrath got his dues, Most telling part is when Irish Gardai were more concerned about the reputation of the "good people" where his parents lived and where the alleged stolen goods were located, If that Fraud happened here then a quiet phone call from gardai and fraud claim would have been fogotten....

    So glad I'm not the only one who wasn't Victoria's biggest fan! I was getting so annoyed as it went on. The weak voice was in stark contrast to how riled up she got when being questioned at the start. Shocking that someone can be that manipulative and calculating.
    Was surprised about the result for the accomplice...can't remember his name now!

    I would say all4?

    The black widow episodes were excellent.

    But the recent one about the drug import operation was even better, the home county cartel.

    It's a really excellent series imo, channel 4 are brilliant at these kind of docs.
