Gilbert Power, the podcaster at the centre of Netflix’s dark comedy miniseries Bodkin, understands that murky ambiguity is synonymous with the genre, and as much as people might crave them, neat endings are a rarity in the exploitative world of true crime. Which is why, when he lands up on the shores of a quaint Irish town to revisit a 25-year-old mystery — the disappearance of three people on Halloween night — he wants focus on ‘red herrings, diversions, human interest stuff’ instead of actually trying to solve it.
