True crime adaptation See No Evil: The Moors Murders is now on Netflix, where it's among the most watched TV shows on the streaming service.
The two-part British series, which originally premiered on ITV in 2006, currently ranks at number two in Netflix's UK Top 10. The crime drama is right behind Adolescence, which has been holding onto the top spot for the past few weeks.
See No Evil features Downton Abbey actor Joanne Froggatt and Three Girls star Maxine Peake, with supporting actors including Mission: Impossible's Sean Harris, Coronation Street's Connor McIntyre, and Doctor Who's Susan Twist.
Written by Neil McKay and directed by Christopher Menaul, the drama is based on the murders committed around Manchester by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley between July 1963 and October 1965.
Harris and Peake play convicted murderers Brady and Hindley, while Froggatt plays Hindley's sister Maureen Smith, who provides the viewpoint for the story together with her husband David, portrayed by Matthew McNulty.
