A Killer Makes a Call returns to Channel 5 with a gripping new series that delves deep into chilling true crime cases - each beginning with a real 999 emergency call. But there’s a dark twist: the voice on the line is the killer.
Each episode unravels a different murder investigation, all sparked by a seemingly frantic plea for help. Some callers spin intricate lies to cover their tracks. Others feign innocence or claim self-defence. And a few go so far as to manipulate the emergency services to mislead police from the very start.
At the heart of every story is the 999 call itself - vital evidence that often holds the first clues to the truth. As detectives work to uncover what really happened, viewers are taken inside the investigation where justice begins with a single call.
