2 x DVDs. The 2009 episode of 'Real Crime Rachel Nickell' was a single 50-minute documentary, broadcast on ITV1 June 22, 2009 immersing viewers in the horror of July 15, 1992, when 23-year-old model Rachel Nickell was stabbed 49 times during a routine walk on London's Wimbledon Common with her toddler son, Alex (who hid in bushes and later gave a composite sketch description). It sets a tense tone with: The Attack and Immediate Aftermath; Early Investigation Pitfalls; The Honeytrap Sting (Colin Stagg). It builds suspense by teasing missed leads (e.g., Robert Napper's 1995 questioning) without spoilers, underscoring investigative bias over forensics. It's emotionally raw, using home videos of Rachel to humanise her, and critiques 1990s policing amid tabloid frenzy. The 2nd DVD is entitled 'Rachel Nickell: The Untold Story' broadcast on ITV1 March 8, 2018. This is a standalone 45-minute documentary in ITV's Crime and Punishment Season, written and presented by journalist Fiona Bruce. Fiona Bruce, who reported on the case as a young BBC journalist in 1992, returns to the brutal stabbing of 23-year-old model and mother Rachel Nickell on London's Wimbledon Common (July 15, 1992). The documentary uncovers 'untold' angles through Bruce's memories, including her exclusive access to police evidence photos (which she later regretted viewing, calling it a 'terrible violation' of Rachel's privacy). Key elements: The Flawed Pursuit; Missed Real Killer Robert Napper; Personal and Familial Impact; Themes: Victim dignity, investigative bias, and forensic progress — Bruce emphasises Rachel's vivacious life (as a free-spirited model) over her death. The tone is haunting and reflective, using archival footage, subtle dramatisations, and Bruce's narration for intimacy, avoiding gore to honour the family. With small newspaper cuttings to fr. and back of the plastic case. Two DVDs in plastic case. …
