Libby, Are You Home Yet?

Winner of Best Factual Series at the 2023 BAFTAs, the timely and sensitively-told documentary series Libby, Are You Home Yet? tells the story of 21-year-old Libby Squire, who wasn’t allowed to enter a nightclub because she was drunk, so was sent home by her friends in a taxi - but never arrived. 

Libby, Are You Home Yet was also named Best True Crime Documentary at the Broadcast Digital Awards, who described it as ““A masterclass in true crime storytelling” and “a stark portrait of grief that told a parent’s worst nightmare in a sensitive and moving way.”

The three-part series was the second highest-performing original on Sky Crime last year.
