The Paedophile Next Door

Runtime

Synopsis

Historian Steve Humphries investigates shortcomings in policies and legislation designed to protect children from sexual abuse, uncovering radical new approaches proposed by a growing number of child-protection experts that challenge entrenched attitudes and emotional responses to paedophiles. Senior lecturer Sarah Goode argues that the most effective way to reduce child-abuse cases is to encourage individuals to seek treatment before they act on their impulses and target victims. This theory is supported by an interview in the programme in which Humphries meets a man who makes an extraordinary on-camera confession.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

Craft leads on file
