Watch Four Lives on TV and online

The three-part series will begin at 9PM on Monday, 3 January on BBC One, continuing at the same time on Tuesday, 4 January and Wednesday, 5 January.

Meanwhile all three episodes will be available to watch online on BBC iPlayer from 9PM on Monday, 3 January.

A synopsis of the first episode shares: “When two young men are found dead in London, the police blame their deaths on overdoses. Their loved ones are unconvinced and try to find out the truth.”

Speaking previously, Stephen Merchant said: “This is a story that can’t be ignored – how four young lives were lost and their families’ brave attempt to uncover what happened. This factual drama will shed light on their story, so it’s a privilege to be a part of telling it with the brilliant combination of Jeff Pope, Neil McKay and the BBC.”

Sheridan Smith added: “I love playing real life characters – especially an inspirational woman like Sarah Sak – but with it comes responsibility.

“Along with the other families, Sarah went through so much heartache and it would have been easy for her to just accept what she was being told by the police, but something inside made her keep fighting for her son.”
