AETN UK Commissions Evil Up Close From HanrahanMedia

AETN UK has commissioned award-winning indie HanrahanMedia to produce Evil Up Close - Vanessa George: The Nursery Nurse Paedophile for Crime & investigation Network.
The film will be made by HanrahanMedia's documentary arm FirstLookTV.
Evil Up Close will examine the demise of a mother and wife by peeling away Vanessa George's apparent veneer to reveal the depths of her evil. With exclusive interviews from her devastated husband Andrew and her two traumatised daughters, Pearl and Grace, the documentary offers a never before seen insight into the "bubbly and enthusiastic" child carer that came to be charged with seven child abuse offences.
Police, prosecutors, former colleagues and members of the Devon community also speak out about their experiences with the infamous nursery nurse paedophile. Police interview tapes will be heard in conjunction with news 'flashbacks' to drive the narrative while reminding the viewers of the atrocities Vanessa George and her paedophile ring committed.
Will Hanrahan, Creative Director, HanrahanMedia, said: "FirstLookTV is establishing a reputation for delivering high quality documentaries on difficult and emotional subjects. The team prides itself on its sensitive and revealing approach. Evil Up Close not only constructs the case against Vanessa George, but allows her family to speak out as victims also. We are looking forward to raising the bar in this field and delivering more of what FirstLookTV does best."
Tom Davidson, Managing Director, AETN UK, added: "We are delighted to be commissioning more content from FirstLookTV and this programme will be a feature of Great British Crime Month on the channel in October."
Evil Up Close - Vanessa George: The Nursery Nurse Paedophile is a HanrahanMedia production - made by the company's documentary arm, FirstLookTV - for Crime & Investigation Network.
It was commissioned by Koulla Anastasi of AETN UK's Crime & Investigation Network UK's Crime & Investigation Network and will be executive produced by Will Hanrahan for HanrahanMedia and Koulla Anastasi for AETN UK.
