Sexy Murder: History and Key Facts

Sexy Murder is a British mockumentary television miniseries created by Andy Kinnear and Céin McGillicuddy. Produced by Roughcut TV for BBC Three, the series is a spoof of the true crime documentary genre, parodying the style and tropes of hits such as Making a Murderer, the Serial podcast, and The Jinx.

The series stars Rich Fulcher as Christoph Spinelli, an unethical American documentary filmmaker who travels to the United Kingdom to document the case of a missing woman, hoping to exonerate the primary suspect and create "sexiness" where there is none.

It premiered as a series of six short episodes on 31 October 2016 on BBC Three (online), followed by a broadcast of the full story as a single 30-minute special on BBC iPlayer on 13 December 2016.
