renowned investigative journalists and content makers to the first-ever

real, powerful crime stories of survivors, families and perpetrators.
Home to top-rating series including Britain's Darkest

Denise’s new series Survivors with Denise Welch is due to premiere on C+I in Spring 2021, whilst Dermot - a long-time channel favourite - is the host of top-rated true crime series Crimes that Shook Britain and, most recently for C+I, Killer Britain with Dermot Murnaghan. Last November, Anita Rani narrated Family Man, a one-off special about domestic abuse for C+I’s recent initiative to highlight and help end abuse against women. Rani will also star in C+I’s newly recommissioned show Murdertown 3. Coming up in the Autumn on the channel, the show tells the story of some of the most shocking murders in the UK and examines the impact they had on the local communities around them.
