Channel 4 has quietly added a brand new documentary series that fans of 24 Hours in Police Custody will not want to miss. The groundbreaking series 24 Hours in Police Custody has been a firm favourite since it first aired in 2014, and with repeat episodes airing, a fresh release is now available for true crime fans.
