In the podcast, the legal team investigating a miscarriage of justice of Dennis Perry sought to find an episode of Prime Suspect that pertained to the murder of Harold and Thelma Swain, hoping it would help them uncover the timeline of false information being injected into the investigation. No tape was able to be uncovered and they continue to seek a recording of this Prime Suspect episode.
