Believe Me
ITV1
A true-crime drama looking into the case of John Worboys, the so-called black cab rapist. He was convicted in 2009 of attacks on 12 women and found guilty of an additional four assaults in 2019, but is suspected of committing more than a hundred more. Worboys, played by Daniel Mays, would pretend to celebrate a casino win then pressure female passengers into drinking spiked drinks. Creator Jeff Pope (The Reckoning) pulls focus to the women: their treatment by the police and their fight for justice. Starring Aimee-Ffion Edwards and Aasiya Shah.
