The Hunt for Raoul Moat: The Mini-Series

In 2010, Raoul Moat went on the run after shooting three people, evading capture for over a week and threatening to kill again. As the first such case to be covered ‘live’ by 24-hour news channels in the UK, the manhunt played out against a warped perception of this vicious killer as an ‘anti-hero’, a persecuted victim fighting back against the authorities. A timely reminder of how fake news and social media can create a dangerous myth, this is an unflinching account of those shocking events, focusing on Moat’s innocent victims, the officers who put themselves in the firing line, and the journalist who sought to tell the real story.
