Britain’s biggest serial killer was a doctor, Dr Harold Shipman. Unsuspected for many years, Dr. Shipman selected his victims from his patient list. There were clues, but who in the community would believe that a doctor would kill his patients? Suspected of killing over 350 people during his career, it was clumsy attempts at forging the will of one of his victims in his own favour that alerted the police and led to his arrest. Found guilty at his trial and jailed for life, Dr Shipman committed suicide never accepting his guilt.

    Who else likes the British style crime documentaries in comparison to the ridiculously annoying music and over the top narration in American crime documentaries ?

    The taxi driver was the best detective of them all.
  • @MrSwanny66
    Shipman actually sent a confession note to police years before he was arrested but nobody could make out his writing
  • @daniellong4607
    Man, you're talking about your dad's death. I wouldn't hold it against you if you said a curse word or two.
  • @Samara.Weaving
    One does wonder how many "Doctors" like him are out there today ???
  • @Livikyu
    Imagine the taxi driver's wife ever trying to tell him he's wrong about something now.
  • @edwinfox4625
    Harold Shipman used to be my sister's doctor when she was younger. She is very fortunate and grateful to be here still as is everyone else in my family!
  • @shan7180
    The fact he recorded deaths before the person died is chilling, cold and calculating. Unimaginable!
  • i actually see nothing wrong with him going for a run in the rain til 2am after his mum dying ....time to think about things, i really dont see how thats odd.
  • @warhoofdje2227
    3:02 Is he really wearing a disney tie? Was there nobody in his life that said: "Nah, maybe not the right tie for this occasion?" 😂
  • @VeeSeven700
    "then, a pretty window dresser" That is unbelievably savage for a documentary of this sort. I shouldn't have laughed. But I did.
  • @heavenlymilano
    "56 hand picked detectives" 31:06 Don't waste public money. The taxi driver and the undertaker lady can do a better job!?
  • @nickyriding8139
    He was my family doctor in the 70's mad to think he was Britain's worst serial killer!
  • @mollyh9356
    He is the most normal looking dude I have ever seen, which makes this whole thing even scarier. These people are living among us and sometimes, we have no idea. Stay safe out there!
  • @ParagonPKC
    Doesn't this guy have nurses or other doctors looking at his work and to say "wtf are you doing??"
  • @jumakumajuma
    this proves two things to me . One , we put two much trust in uniforms and titles like Dr and in authority , and , TWO , following on from the we need to question authority if we feel the need .
  • It's so backwards ... The doctor has the respect of the community to the point the police are embarrassed to question him ... the simple caring taxi driver feels no one will believe him if he voices his concern and suspicions. Oj Simpson got away with murder too ... for the same exact reasons ... it's other people who put them up so high and they knock down anyone who says different. Beware of what you create.
  • A doctor killed my grandmother with an overdose of Dilaudid. She walked into the ER with leg cramps and never walked out. We proved that (at the very least) the doctor was negligent. All the doctor got was a slap on the wrist and a letter in her file. No lawyer would take our case because my grandmother was "too old" for a good payout. After watching this documentary, I'm wondering if my grandmother was murdered. I've mostly been of the opinion that it was gross incompetence, but it seems awfully convenient that she received TWO doses of Dilaudid, the second after she reported a pain level of zero.
  • An elderly man goes to surgery to talk to the doctor that diagnosed his SON with cancer and gets killed. Sir, I am so sorry. Your Dad loved you so so much. He is a true hero and your guardian angel. I don't think he would have stopped asking and stopped fighting. If he had been alive during Shipman's trial, he would have been in the front row seeking justice. May he rest in peace.
