A Dramatisation of Three Unsolved Murders

Steeltown Murders is a true crime drama with a twist. Set in both 1973 and the early 2000s, the series centres on the hunt to catch the killer of three young women in the Port Talbot area in Wales. As the first case of its kind, the mystery was solved almost 30 years later using pioneering DNA evidence.

By interweaving the lives of the characters across two time periods, viewers see how a town deals with loss and the repercussions of an unsolved case. The scarring effects of an unsolved crime on a community is there for all to see. The series explores the very nature of justice and what it means to live on in the shadow of such brutal tragedy.

An incredible cast and crew to bring this true story to our screens. Philip Glenister (Life On Mars) and Steffan Rhodri (Gavin & Stacey) lead the cast as DCI Paul Bethell and Phil ‘Bach’ Rees, with their younger selves played by Scott Arthur (Good Omens) and Siôn Alun Davies (Hidden) respectively.
