ROBERT
MILLER (working title)
(Drama Series)
"For
a long time, my story has been pursued by journalists and
now, with a book in the pipeline that has the enthusastic
backing of Krays investigator, Leonard "Nipper"
Read, this is the perfect opportunity to bring out a television
drama".
The extraordinary life and career of former Detective Inspector
Robert Miller, who played a pivotal role in such high profile
cases as The Guildford Four and the Jeremy Bamber murders,
serves as the inspiration for this totally fresh, unique crime
drama series.
