The Real Serpent viewers say they're 'losing the will' with Charles Sobhraj's 'boring' and 'tedious' docuseries as they slam Channel 4 for giving serial killer airtime 'to spill his BS narrative'


The docuseries follows the French serial killer, 79, after his release from a Nepalese prison in 2022 after 20 years behind bars for killing two tourists in Kathmandu, Nepal in 1975.

Many pointed to the fact that Charles gave evasive and weak answers to the majority of questions, as others slammed the series for giving a serial killer a platform to 'spill his BS narrative'. After fleeing back to the Far East to escape his previous life in France, Charles took up with a French Canadian lover Marie-Andree Leclerc, who followed him slavishly as he exerted a cult-like hold over travellers to Bangkok, many of whom were never seen again. However, viewers were unimpressed by the docuseries, branding it 'tedious' due to Charles' evasive answers to the majority of questions, as others slammed the series for giving a serial killer a platform to 'spill his BS narrative'
