Page 97 TELEVISION REVIEWS Sympathy for the Devil? Appropriate Adult (ITV 1, September 2011) Not much feted previously for the quality of its dramas (unless it was by fans of outlandish psycho thrillers about the perils of adultery), ITV has recently been enjoying a renaissance in quality that has made even the BBC sit up and take notice, as witnessed by lastyear’s much hyped Downtown Abbey / Upstairs Downstairs faceoff (the enjoyably preposterous Downtown Abbey walked away with all the prizes and plaudits). However, producing a drama based on events surrounding one of the most notorious crime stories of the 1990s – the serial killing exploits of gruesome twosome Fred and Rosemary West – was always going to be a rather more delicate proposition than assembling an assortment of noted Thesps in a stately home and letting them get on with talking ponderously about how “War changes things...” Let’s face it, the serial killer biopic is a particularly debased format, as epitomised most vividly in the distasteful antics of the now defunct (but much lamented, at least until its partial reincarnation as Palisades/Tartan) Tartan Metro company, which was a respectful and intelligent distributor of international and hardtoget genre films but which also helped bankroll three particularly regrettable movies of this type. These were; the sordid, workmanlike Ed Gein (2000), the deeply offensive (on many levels) Ted Bundy (2003) – which actually soundtracked a montage sequence depicting Bundy’s peripatetic assaults on dozens of young women with comedy music and the supposedly “hilarious” sound of his victims being hit on the head – and the equally repugnant The Hillside Strangler (2006). -
