Crimewatch UK - Thursday 08 February 2007

[@MsLilpeach]

I cannot believe that this guy is getting totally pummeled by this whacko, yet there's 3 people sitting right there, just watching, & doing NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NADA. I'm sorry, but to me, that's completely pathetic. I mean, that's one of the sorriest excuses for a human that I've ever freakin' seen right there. How in the world can people just sit there and watch someone get attacked, & potentially get killed?? No way, could I EVER do that!! Idc if I got in trouble by the boss-man, or whoever, I'd do whatever I had to in order to offer some kind of asistance...Idc WHO is standing there!!!!

[@Harry-fk5of]

Poor guy. The bystander effect is disgusting. People can be so stupid.

[@DeanBall75]

Sadly this an early episode from the final 'over dramatised' years of crimewatch. I think it's also quite obvious that Nick's style of presenting stands out a bit as the last remaining part of the golden era of the programme. The music/effects was already on the reconstructions together with the 'location' style chat through 'The killer was walking from this (pointing) direction' really hated this but was a lot cheaper than producing real detailed reconstructions. Be interested to see the June 2006 episode Damien if you have it, as it's been mentioned a few times as the very last episode of the 'original' style of Crimewatch. Maybe the next Mocata Monday? Definitely a significant one to see I think.

In the old days Nick and Sue sat at their desks the whole time, then they brought in the walking around the room and talking into the camera.

[@MsVanorak]

@@treasurehunteruk9718 it was better when they were sat down like newsdesks - mind you some newsreaders have to stand now.

[@lw3646]

Compared to the 1980s and 1990s the reconstructions definitely became much shorter, faster edited, use of dramatic music, generally a flashier style. Some feel it got a bit tacky and seemed to almost overdramatise things.

[@Harry-fk5of]

​@@lw3646 and the ironic thing is it made them less effective. Less is more

Poor fatta, nobody deserves to die in that way, r.i.p fella

[@IncineraSean]

Theres always a reason, nobody knows what a man gets up to. People dont get stabbed up in the middle of the night for no reason.

[@smudger497]

Did they catch who did it ?

[@vinstar1243]

R.I.P Fatta I hope you're slip sliding away with Twinny and the rest of the Northern Soul gang, KEEP THE FAITH 🖤🤍

[@chrislayton4451]

The robbers in the first case really did think that they were playing real life grand theft auto

[@CGreen-hh6qk]

R.I.P fatta hope your children get justice just a shocking murder and a act of violence on a bloke in his flat who was asleep cowards whoever is responsible for the murder

[@DamienMocata]

They did! It was Fatta’s Girlfriend’s Ex, who was targeting Fatta. I shared a link on another comment on here. :)

[@marielewis8521]

@@DamienMocata Thank you just read it.

[@zato80]

That version of the theme is bloody awful

[@DamienMocata]

You’re the first person to say they hate this version of it. The live chat was pretty enthusiastic about it. Guess that’s one for a poll over on the fb group.

[@jackcrawford3921]

Why did the gang in the first reconstruction think they were in GTA 🤣🤣😂😂

[@jameshogarth9660]

Wonder if the trouserless chap was caught. Very odd

[@SairT8819]

Bizarre moment right at the end when they start playing the rapist ringtone and it seems like neither presenter is aware that they were going to do that.

[@DamienMocata]

Still weird even after all this time!

Doesn’t seem like nearly 15 years, does it!

[@marielewis8521]

So do I especially the Fatta murder stick's out cause me and my late partner use too laugh when she use too say he called me old Queen it was funny how she said it.

[@katemissfilanpurrmcdevitt]

So do I at the time I was poorly and the Fatta case scared me so much that I jump out of my bed and too, my duvet with me Xxx

[@garethroblyn]

I remember the Beverly Parkhouse murder. Not far from where I live. Royston Moore who is in jail for the murder still pleads his innocence

[@DamienMocata]

I’m guessing this was a big bit of news for your area at the time! What are your thoughts on his conviction?

[@garethroblyn]

@@DamienMocata yes it was, I drunk in the pub also. It’s a strange one I’m really unsure. There is a letter available online where he pleads his case.

[@MsVanorak]

i just went and tried to research it, someone confessed but conveniently committed suicide in his cell. moore seems to have been convicted on his character. mind you there have been that many miscarriages of justice in south wales police that someone has written a book about them all. it needs bringing to public attention really.

[@treasurehunteruk9718]

Nisha Nasri's husband got 20 years in 2008. He might be out in six years.

[@naznaz4508]

In the states they either get death penalty or life imprisonments.

[@westminsterwatcher5152]

Why TF did they play the ringtone? Bizarre!

[@saptieujobe9293]

Rest in peace Fatta 💔

[@nigeldunne7505]

The police now who killed fatta thay wanted to be 💯% the way he was talking to nick 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@richardspandley6387]

Has anyone got the original episode with Felicity Paget murder, I’m guessing it’s somewhen in 2004? It creeped me out a bit at the time when the now proved fictitious knifeman stood and the end of their bed and announced “it’s time for you to die!”.

[@smudger497]

Anyone know if the gang that got out and shot at police was ever solved

[@TheWhiff12]

Did the Peter Oduwole case get solved?

[@ryujigoda3445]

No, but his stepson been a good boy lately He ran over a pregnant woman 🤰🏼
