Temporada 1 (The Wimbledon Poisoner)

On the Record was a weekly political television show aired by the BBC in the United Kingdom between 1988 and 2002. The programme was usually shown on a Sunday lunchtime on BBC One, as a replacement for the 1980s political series This Week, Next Week, which was presented by David Dimbleby. The programme was presented by Dimbleby's younger brother, Jonathan Dimbleby, from 1988 to 1993, and by John Humphrys from 1993 to 2002. A typical programme ran for one hour and began with a filmed piece about a major issue of the day before returning to the studio where the presenter would 'grill' a leading politician on the same issue. The programme's mascot was a crocodile, based on a British House of Commons gargoyle and the "Big Ben" Clock Tower, and fashioned from plastic, glue and leather. For the title sequence of the first five series the crocodile marched across the UK; from 1993 onwards, the croc marched around Europe. Both sequences were shot in stop-frame animation by 3 Peach Animation. During 2000, the then BBC Director General Greg Dyke ordered a review of political output from BBC, which was carried out by Fran Unsworth. This led to a major overhaul of political output in 2002, which resulted in On the Record being axed and replaced with The Politics Show. The final edition was aired on 15 December 2002.
