Stacey Dooley

BBC Documentaries has announced three new documentaries from Stacey Dooley for BBC Three and iPlayer, each looking at timely issues facing the UK today. 

In Death in the Barracks, Stacey explores the events leading up to Royal Artillery Gunner Jaysley Beck’s tragic death at her barracks at Larkhill Camp in Wiltshire. 

Fallen Women sees Stacey look into a series of cases involving British women who died following falls from height, asking whether patterns of domestic abuse may have been overlooked in some of these deaths. 

In Down the K-Hole Stacey spends five months in a Stockport rehabilitation unit, to find out if former users can overcome their addiction and rebuild their lives. 

Stacey Dooley said: “Each one of these documentaries explores difficult, often overlooked issues, from the deaths of women where crucial questions remain, to the growing impact of ketamine use, and for some, the devastating reality faced by those living in military barracks. 

“They are going to be some of the most challenging, and important films I’ve worked on here in the UK I’m sure. The access we have been afforded to meet those affected, to hear their stories and try to understand the broader picture feels like an enormous responsibility and one that isn’t lost on me. I would like to thank everyone who has agreed to contribute. And I hope all three films encourage thoughtful conversations.” 

Emma Loach, Interim Head of Commissioning, Documentaries, said: “We’re incredibly proud to be bringing this new run of films with Stacey to audiences. She has a rare ability to connect with people and tell complex, often uncomfortable stories with warmth, clarity and real humanity. 

“Across these documentaries, Stacey draws attention to urgent and deeply troubling issues here in the UK, creating space for voices and experiences that are too often unheard. These are powerful, intimate films that reflect the very best of British storytelling. 

"We’re hugely grateful to all those who have shared their personal stories with us for their openness and courage.”
