What exactly is true crime TV?

Want to immerse yourself in the true crime community? After watching your favourite Sky Crime show, why not hear what other people have to say on a Spotify fan podcast or subscribe to a true crime blog on YouTube? You can do it all through your TV, thanks to Sky Q.
What shows can I watch on Sky Crime?
Access Sky Crime via your Sky Q remote and you can watch some compelling, fascinating shows packed with suspense.
Simply say “The Jinx” into your Sky Q remote to learn about Robert Durst, a multi-billionaire real estate heir suspected in the disappearance of his wife and the murders of two others.
Another fan favourite is Who Killed Garrett Philips? Following the murder of 12-year-old Garrett, this acclaimed documentary highlights how a rushed investigation may have let his real killer escape.
Make sure you catch I Love You, Now Die, too.
