Emma Kenny returns with an enthralling new show that plunges into the depths of love twisted into terror. After her triumphant The Serial Killer Next Door tour, Emma captivates yet again, solidifying her status as one of the UK's foremost crime presenters. This time, she invites you to delve into the dark world of Killer Couples.

Killer Couples is not just another true crime show; it's a riveting exploration of romance gone horrifically awry. Emma unravels the complex psychology of couples who commit the unthinkable, transforming their intimate bond into a pact of death and destruction. This show offers a chilling glimpse into the lives of duos who embarked on deadly paths, from the infamous Brady and Hindley to the modern-day equivalents whose stories shock and bewilder.

Emma's compelling narrative dissects how these relationships evolve from love to something entirely malevolent, providing an intense, thought-provoking experience. The show dares to ask: What drives these couples to cross the line together? How does love become an accessory to murder? Killer Couples seeks to understand the dynamics at play in these lethal liaisons, making it a must-attend for anyone fascinated by the darker aspects of human nature and relationships.

Prepare to be enthralled, enlightened, and possibly a bit alarmed. Killer Couples promises an evening filled with intrigue, psychological depth, and discussions that will linger long after the show ends. Whether you're a true crime aficionado or simply curious about the complexities of romantic relationships, this show is an unparalleled exploration of what happens when love leads not to a happy ending, but to a deadly one.
