A "bizarre" true crime documentary titled Britain's TikTok Murder is climbing the most-watched charts on Prime Video, leaving viewers "disturbed" by its exploration of a shocking real-life case. The two-part series, released last week, examines the investigation into the death of 62-year-old retired army veteran Stuart Crocker, who was found stabbed 26 times at his home in a quiet Hampshire town in 2023.
Series Details and Viewer Reactions
Neighbours raised the alarm, and police arrived to find Crocker had been brutally attacked in his own home. The series includes interviews with local residents and reveals that Crocker had a younger girlfriend, Winter Swan-Miller, who had moved in with him but was nowhere to be seen after his body was discovered. As of Monday morning (September 7), the series remains in the top 10 in the UK.
Prime Video has teased the series with a description: "When a 62 year-old army veteran is found brutally murdered, suspicion falls on his influencer girlfriend after she posts a cryptic message on TikTok." Viewers have taken to social media to share their reactions, with one TikTok user captioning a video: "Absolutely shocking true crime documentary." The reviewer described it as "a brand new shocking, tragic, disturbing true crime documentary" and added, "This documentary really is shocking and bizarre."
