Awful narration

[leadxl · 1/10 · 6 January 2019]

Watched the first episode .Couldn't get through the second because of the narrator's awful tone of voice. Trying too hard to sound like an American real crime narrator but ended sounding stupid and affected Spoiled the series for me although I couldn't watch more than one and a half of them. Showing the same murder scenes over and over also made the series boring

Problem with narrator

[julieevans-03115 · 4/10 · 3 February 2024]

Like other reviewers I was put off by the dull and flat voice of the narrator and could not carry on watching the series. Also, the director decided to show reconstructions of the grisly murders repeatedly, which was irritating and unnecessary. The experts and historians were interesting and professional, pity it was very poorly directed and narrated. It is a shame as there is footage of actual historical locations and the subject matter was fascinating.

Will avoid any series in future if this narrator is involved, I hope the production company takes note. Very, very disappointed, would recommend watching it with subtitles!

Could have been good but...

Was really looking forward to this and the experts were interesting but the narrator was dire.

Sounded totally unprofessional and dull.

Couldn't continue watching as his drone was so jarring and out of step with the rest of the contributors.

Very disappointing as I so wanted to watch.

It looked very interesting and some of the cases they were investigating would have had me hooked right from the start but this presentation was all wrong and sounded like an amateur video on YouTube.

I was quite take aback by this as it isn't usual on such a show and I'm afraid it just ruined the whole thing for me.

Such a shame.
