Description

Angela Rippon on her Drivetime show on the final Home Office court challenge to the ruling Central Television can screen an interview between psychologist Paul Britton and convicted serial killer Denis Nilsen tonight on the Murder in Mind programme. Includes interview with Nilsen’s biographer Brian Masters, who argues the interview should be shown if it is useful for greater psychiatric understanding, but agrees specific reference to those Nilsen killed might be offensive to the victims’ relatives and friends.
