Channel 4 releases gritty new crime series going behind-the-scenes of the most jaw-dropping murders
CHANNEL 4 is releasing a gritty new crime series that will go behind-the-scenes of the most jaw-dropping murders.
After a brutal assault, a murder, a burglary, or when a cannabis farm or a drugs den is busted, it isn’t the responsibility of the Emergency Services to clean up the mess.

The professionally accredited cleaners are the last to enter the crime scene and the first to hand the locations back to the public.
Crime Scene Cleaners is a 10×60” series which follows some of the hardest-working crime scene cleaning companies in Britain and the USA that help people get their lives back to normal after the most traumatic events imaginable.
From dealing with the aftermath of murder, drug dens and arson attacks, crime scene cleaners are part hazardous material clean-up crews and part therapists.
They are on-call 24/7 to some of the most horrific crime scenes and sometimes put their own lives in danger – and they’re about to reveal all in this captivating new series.
The cameras will explore the crimes that have been perpetrated from a unique point of view – the fall-out of the case, and the clever cleaning techniques used by these specialist crews.
They will reveal the crimes behind the mess and the transformations undertaken.
The series will also feature criminal psychologists, police officers and forensic specialists who unpack the crime and analyse the scene.
Rita Daniels, Commissioning Editor for Documentaries and Factual Entertainment at Channel 4, said: “Crime Scene Cleaners pulls back the curtain on the vital work of these unsung heroes.
“It’s not just about cleaning up – it’s about helping people rebuild after trauma.
“We’re excited to bring this unique and compelling series to Channel 4, showcasing the incredible dedication and expertise of these professionals.”
Elaine Hackett, CEO of Crackit TV, added: “This series offers rare access into the extraordinary lives of professional crime scene cleaners, who encounter people’s worst nightmares on a daily basis.
“We’re thrilled to be following these experts through dangerous and difficult situations and getting to know the incredible characters behind the hazmat suits.”

“We’ve seen great success internationally with Crackit produced content and are delighted to help bring another great series to the international marketplace.”
