Netflix are also releasing a documentary series on the murder.This series was made with the blessing of the du Plantier family so i think we are going to see different stories.Bailey "didn't do it" and Bailey "did it"

Are Netflix doing a separate documentary on this case?

Yeah, Murder in West Cork I think, due out the end of the month.

Not great at all; some insight into the character of Bailey, poignant scenes with the son at the cottage but overall little in the way of analysis. Sheridan spent too much time on camera, it’s not his forte. His scene-setting in the first 10 minutes was difficult to endure. And yes, I have watched all episodes despite the beautiful day outside.

Only one episode in, I know the basics of the story, but seems well made so far.
The focus on Jim Sheridan and how he feels about the case is a bit odd.
Fairly gripping all the same.

Confused myself. Didn't think it was that explosive but well made. I'd hoped for more about the gsoc investigation and the discrepancies in the case files. Maybe the Netflix one will have a different slant

When's the Netflix doc out?

The family were interviewed for the series but they felt the documentary was too sympathetic to Bailey and asked that all their interviews be removed so the filmmakers could only use archived footage from interviews in the past

I thought it was good. Maybe a bit too Ian Bailey centric but good insight into his personality.

I suppose there is nothing new to be learned about the case. There isn’t any new evidence that can be magicked up. The only thing that can solve it now is an actual confession.

That Marie Farrell seems completely cracked. When I heard the description of the man with a beret I thought they must be joking. I don’t believe a single thing she said and obviously just wanted to insert herself into the investigation.

Also what was the whole thing about “Fiona”? she rings first from a phone box somewhere and then rings from her house so they were able to trace the number. Now she says the guards told her to say those things but why were they appealing for “Fiona” to come forward so?!
