Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

An Inspector Calls and Alfred Hitchcock are evoked in the BBC's gripping crime drama about a gruesome house share. When a young couple move into their new flat they soon unearth the body of a woman, who hasn't been seen for two years, in the attic. Their housemates – who include a sneering teacher (David Bamber) and his damaged former pupil, a dysfunctional lesbian couple and a former alcoholic (Steven Mackintosh) – are all suspects. David Threlfall excels as the retired detective who can't let this case go, and, up until the bonkers and gothic last 10 minutes, this is beautifully paced TV.
