Life and Death Row

Life and Death Row is a BBC documentary television series telling the story of capital punishment through the eyes of young people whose lives have been shaped by it.

Series 3
Series 3 was the first series following the move of BBC Three to an online-only format. Love Triangle consisted of eight shorts recounting the police investigation, trial and sentencing of the murder of Heather Strong. These episodes last for approximately 10 minutes each in contrast to the hour long episodes of series 1 and 2.

The Mass Execution consists of four 60 or 75 minute episodes looking at the eight inmates on Arkansas death row whose executions were pushed forward due to the expiration date on the Midazolam used in these executions.

Reception
Series One received generally positive reviews from The Independent and The Telegraph.

Series Three was praised by The Guardian, including praising the adaptation of the program to online-only mini-series.

Awards
Life and Death Row was awarded a BAFTA in 2015 for Best Television Factual Series
