Fiction
29 May 2016
Anyone who has read Mr Pierrepoint's book, seen his TV interviews or heard his radio interviews will know this film totally misrepresents his life, character and work.

If you want to make fiction go ahead but don't pretend it's autobiography.

There is zero evidence that Mr Pierrepoint was ever troubled or disturbed by his work, he viewed himself as a public servant who's duty was to perform his duties diligently and efficiently.

The makers of this film chose to misuse Mr Pierrepoint as a vehicle for their own opinions knowing Mr Pierrepoint can not object.

If you want to know the true story read Mr Pierrepoint's excellent autobiography, there are also interviews with him to be found online.
