First episode tonight, concludes tomorrow.
Based on a true story.
The police bungled it.
The title refers to the fact that it is a story about an honour killing.
This seems to be a peculiar way to describe any killing.
How on earth can people conspire to kill a member of their own family?
What is wrong with them?

Viewers were quick to react to the debut programme, with one writing: 'Boasting of killing their own family, it is deeply disturbin (inset).' Keeley Hawes (right) plays the detective who brought five killers to justice in the true story of Banaz Mahmod, who was slaughtered by her own family for falling in love with a man of her own choosing. In tonight's premiere, audiences at home saw one of the killers - Mohammed Hama, left, who had been arrested - 'boast and laugh' about the murder when calling his friends from a prison in south London, unaware his phone calls were being monitored by the police. ITV's new two-part drama tells the powerful story of DCI Caroline Goode's passionate search to discover the fate of Banaz, an Iraqi-Kurdish woman from south London , after she disappeared. Her father, uncle and two cousins were later convicted of her murder.
