Believe Me is a 2026 British crime drama mini-series directed by Julia Ford, telling the true story of John Worboys — the so-called Black Cab Rapist — whose predatory crimes against dozens of women in London went undetected for years before his 2009 conviction shook the country.

What is Believe Me about?

A London cab driver develops a calculated routine to prey on his passengers. Presenting himself as a lottery winner eager to share his good fortune, he lures women into accepting drinks laced with sedatives, leaving them unable to recall what happened to them. Over two years — 2006 to 2008 — his targets multiplied while investigative failures allowed him to remain free. The series examines both the mechanics of his crimes and the experiences of the survivors who struggled to be taken seriously, tracing the slow, painful path toward justice through the courts and the women who refused to be silenced.

Cast & crew

Director Julia Ford brings a restrained, victim-centred approach to the material. Aimee-Ffion Edwards leads the cast, known for her nuanced dramatic work in British television. She is joined by Daniel Mays, a reliable presence in UK crime drama, Laurie Kynaston, and Jordan Bolger, whose performances ground the series in credible human detail.

Context & significance

True-crime dramas chronicling institutional failures resonate strongly with diaspora audiences who have witnessed, in various contexts, how survivors are disbelieved by the systems meant to protect them. Believe Me joins a tradition of British investigative drama — think landmark docudramas about miscarriages of justice — that prioritises survivor testimony over spectacle. Persian-speaking viewers abroad have shown sustained appetite for British crime series that blend rigorous fact with emotional honesty. This title streams in its original English audio; Persian subtitles and dubbing are not available on K-Time, but the clear dialogue and documentary-style pacing make it accessible without them.
