British series D flat tells by Dennis Nilsen (1945–2018) chilling true story.
Nilsen was a Scottish serial killer, about whom a documentary was made. It is dedicated to the eight boys and young men Nilsen murdered in cold blood in 1970s and 1980s art in London. After being caught, Nilsen told the police about 15-16 victims, but only eight could be identified. Since then, at least 12 victims have been reported.
Nilsen was tracked down when the drains in his apartment building were blocked. Nilsen had tried to get rid of the remains of the people he had strangled by pulling them down the toilet. When the pipes were repaired, human bones were found. It didn’t take long for the police who were called to the scene to track down Desi, who lived in the same house.
