    • Trivia
      The lead initial detective inspector Brent Hyatt appears to be described in many reviews of this programme as a fictional character, in actual fact he is indeed a real policeman having been previously involved, amongst other cases, in the Serious Crime Units work on high profile so-called Honour Killings such as the case of Iraqi Kurd London student Heshu Yones in 2002/2003. This trial was also a landmark in UK legal history.
    • Crazy credits
      The programme title in the title sequence and advert break bumpers was written with a Cyrillic mirror-image "N" (actually equivalent to "I" in the Latin alphabet) for the first "N" in the name, as a reference to Alexander Litvinenko being Russian.

    Unmasking A Murderer

    This is a brilliant insight into the murderous Russian regime. The deniability on every level is laughable.

    David Tennant's portrayal of Litvinenko is brilliant. Margarita Levieva as his wife is solid and believable.

    This is not only a drama but a thriller true crime which will hook you from the first the first episode.

    I hope that those who watch Litvinenko will understand the difficulty of bringing justice to those in power.

    Mark Bonner, Neil Maskell along with supporting cast are brilliant. It is obvious that a lot of care was taken to depict the true story of a murder that was orchestrated by an evil regime.
