Episode 1: The Setting

In this first episode of the companion podcast to HBO Max’s The Murders At White House Farm, host Lauren Bright Pacheco speaks with director Paul Whittington about how he set the stage for the limited series by working with those closest to the real life case. Providing American listeners with deeper context on mid-'80s Essex, England, Whittington describes how he authentically brought the past to life and shaped both the physical and emotional environment for the harrowing drama -- capturing the pain endured by those involved, and evoking the mood of the country as a whole as it witnessed the entire case unfold.
