North Korea: Murder in the Family
BBC2 This World, 2017
Broadcast on PBS Frontline as North Korea’s Deadly Dictator, 2017
Investigation into the murder of the North Korean dictator’s half-brother Kim Jong-Nam.
On 13 February 2017, Kim walked into Kuala Lumpur airport to catch a flight to Macau. But as he was checking in, he was assassinated with one of the most deadly chemical weapons on earth.
The documentary examined why he was assassinated, lifting the lid on the astonishing story of a bitter family feud and the international business dealings which have kept the Kim family in power for more than 70 years.
“an eye-popping insight into the dynasty whose beaming public face is podgy Armageddon fantasist Kim Jong-un” – The Telegraph
“It’s absolutely riveting. As everyone who contributes says, it is exactly like something from a spy thriller … It would indeed be hard to make up.” – The Guardian
