Operation Dark Phone: Murder By Text – this jaw-dropping tale of how police hacked gangs is like The Wire
Police work rarely resembles The Shield or Line of Duty. It's mostly paperwork, online training and referring people to driver offender courses. But sometimes life imitates art. In 2020, international police hacked the encrypted phone network EncroChat, used by organised crime gangs across the globe. For 74 days, they had access to every message and picture used to coordinate drug trafficking, money laundering, kidnap and murder. 'It was the LinkedIn of organised crime,' explains Matt Horne, a former gold commander at the UK's National Crime Agency (not the actor from Gavin & Stacey). Operation Dark Phone: Murder By Text (Sunday, 9pm, Channel 4) is a documentary-drama cleverly built around these messages, which appear like screenplay dialogue across scenes. It's an arresting insight into how criminal gangs work – and just as revealing, how they talk. 'Sweets' are bullets, while a 'pineapple' is a grenade. A violent British criminal known as Live-long, lying low in Spain, organises an acid attack on a rival, in between sending pictures of his breakfast. Cucumber slices on labneh with paprika – nice. The trick, he instructs, is to stop the victim getting to a sink. Hold them down a few minutes, so the acid can do its job. Less nice. Incredibly, there is dark humour amid the grim. Mostly courtesy of the crims, who go by ridiculous two-word usernames on the anonymous network. There's a Chris Morris absurdity to Mystical-steak, Valued-bridge, Top-shag. At one point, an agent explains how Live-long interacted with Ball-sniffer (who one assumes is lower down). For their part, the agents and white hats are living out the most exciting series of The Wire. In a year, they would usually encounter fewer than a hundred explicit threats to life. Once the curtain was lifted, they intercepted more than 150 in six weeks. Logistically, that's a problem. The show knows how to grab a viewer. Storylines develop, introduce formidable characters, and bring the action to a climax. Ace-prospect imports AKs and Glocks to the UK, one of which is bought by Live-long, who is looking to take on Ace-prospect in a personal revenge attack. Organised through go-betweens, neither side knows who they are dealing with. The NCA has a 24-hour delay when receiving message data, and must work round the clock to close the gap. When Ace-prospect's hitman throws a pineapple into the garden of a rival, which fails to explode, the feds are faced with a dilemma: how to protect the lives of children nearby while keeping their intelligence and mission a secret? This is all far sexier than Crimewatch. Instead of losers sticking up BP garages, here are wealthy playas orchestrating crimes from overseas. Is it ethical? Is there a risk of making the criminals look cooler than their cucumbers? The glossy recreations showcase swimming pools, gym-fit bodies, weapons familiar from movies. The actor playing Live-long looks like Claes Bang, and spends the episode with his top off. Yet this is a morality tale. 'I'm gonna take his eyes out and chase him around every jail,' writes Live-long from a darkened room, his teeth-whitening gumshield glowing ultra-violet like a nightmare acid trip. The empty glamour is not just the medium, it's the message. These criminals' downfall is their superficiality, their constant messaging and oversharing, their boasting and social media-amplified physical vanity. Live-long's true identity is eventually uncovered because he sends a triumphant selfie. Can you imagine an old-school career criminal hearing that? I picture them slapping their forehead; except they've forgotten to unclench their fist and knock themselves out. The show's charge comes from knowing this is real, not merely dramatic writing. Part of that charge is fear – a reminder that there are sociopaths among us who hold life cheap and take joy in violence. Operation Dark Phone is a four-part series, from the makers of 24 Hours in Police Custody, and promises far more jaw-dropping revelations as well as some overdue justice. Don't watch it if your faith in humanity is wavering. I'll probably be giving pineapples in the supermarket a wide berth too, just in case.

I have seen the mischievous side of Sarina Wiegman
Maybe it started in Gothenburg last summer, the change in Sarina Wiegman that has been more obvious at this European Championship and gives us a far greater insight into the personality behind the world's most successful international manager. As a relatively straightforward press conference was coming to an end, after the goalless draw against Sweden that confirmed England's qualification for the European Championship back in July 2024, I wanted to ask another question. Things were being wrapped up by the FA's press officer, so I raised a hand and asked Sarina if 'I could be naughty...' Before I had a chance to finish my sentence to add that I wanted to ask one more question, Sarina with a hint of mischief and clear amusement replied: 'But you are always naughty...' At the time it felt like nothing more than a light-hearted moment; like I was being gently admonished by a patient, but weary schoolteacher. I had plenty of those during my school days. In fact, I would like to apologise to my former science and maths teachers, in particular, for refusing to shut up in class, for behaving like the class clown for the amusement of my fellow pupils and for generally being a nuisance. It was neither big nor clever, as you repeatedly said at the time. Wiegman was pleased with her joke and the laughter in the room, but graciously allowed me to ask my additional question. I did not think any more of it until I arrived in Switzerland, but there has been a clear change in Wiegman's approach to her media duties. She is more relaxed, more fun. She seems to understand the English better. She is more in tune with our sense of humour; how we perceive life, as well as football. It is in keeping with what insiders have told Telegraph Sport about the changes Wiegman has made. Emotional side was always clear in private When she started work as England manager in September 2021, having won the Euros with her native Netherlands in 2017 and reached the final of the World Cup in 2019, she came in as a disciplinarian. She made rules and drove standards. She was stern, strong in her message, but also a little aloof. Her message was always direct and possibly even a little blunt. She was a new manager, from a foreign country, looking to stamp her authority on the group. But those close to her have always maintained there is a softer side; she is also deeply caring and emotionally intelligent. She forms tight bonds with players as well as her staff. The messaging has remained the same: she is direct and honest, but she also keeps a sense of fun in camp too. 'I am like their mum, yes, sometimes…' she laughed. 'But then I remember that I have tough decisions to make and they are grown-up women.' When she told Mary Earps and Millie Bright before the tournament that they would not be first choice in their respective positions, it upset them. Earps announced her retirement from international football and Bright withdrew from the squad to 'prioritise her mental and physical well-being'. Crucially, though, as upset as some of their team-mates were, they stuck with Wiegman, and the FA was impressed with her decisive handling of the situation. It sent a message to the rest of the squad. Those players do not want to be here, we will move on united without them. The 55-year-old said precisely that in her press conference to announce the squad, adding that 'some players might not like what I tell them… but that isn't something I can control'. In Switzerland, Wiegman has continued to show more of herself. The guard has dropped. At a Nations League game in Coventry last year, spotting me in the audience at a press conference, Wiegman said: 'Oh, you are back…' It is a relationship that has continued to enjoy moments of humour and levity. A clip of our exchange after the opening group-game defeat by France, when I asked if she thought there had been a foul on Alessia Russo in the build-up to the second goal, went viral on social media. I'd asked her why she was so upset, she was animated but enjoyed the jousting. 'I'm not the referee,' she replied to all follow-up questions. When I said, 'that's a shame', she finally laughed. "I'm not the referee!" Sarina Wiegman on France's second goal yesterday... — ITV Football (@itvfootball) July 6, 2025 When I compared Lucy Bronze to the warrior Queen Boudica, the heroine of national folklore after the quarter-final win over Sweden, Wiegman was predictably bemused, but went on to give an unusually passionate answer about Bronze, the player and the person. As the press conference ended, she ushered me over to her, keen to learn more about Boudica and what she meant to England, what she had done and why I had used her in a comparison to Bronze. She listened intently, despite FA officials waiting to whisk her off and replied: 'This Queen Boudica has been reincarnated as Lucy Bronze, I will tell Lucy this, thank you.' Where once her public persona was formal and possibly even a little cold, there is far more warmth. Falling in love with England Before the semi-final against Italy I asked her if she had fallen in love with the English. She did not appear to understand the question. It bothered her so much that she got in touch to apologise for failing to grasp what I had meant and promised to answer it properly if I asked it again. 'I'm sorry, I'm still learning English,' Wiegman said on Friday. 'But yes I have [fallen in love]. Otherwise I would not be sitting here with such a smile on my face. 'I have been here four years and it just feels like my home away from home. I always enjoy it when I'm at work, when I'm in England I love it. 'It is just the people. The sporting culture, I really love the culture and the fans of course. It is the connection I have with the people. We are very, very close. 'The people at the FA, with everyone. But it goes beyond that. Sometimes it can be hard, the discussions you have with the media, because it is sport, but I have always felt so much respect. I really like what I have found in England. It is just really nice. 'This team has always shown so much resilience, I see that in abundance and I see that entirely through the prism of the Lionesses. They are absolutely the most resilient of people. They really want to work so hard and are so committed, I really see that [in the English].' Wiegman also admitted she had 'vowed to enjoy' the moments of success more as a manager, something her time in England has brought out of her normal reserved, studious self. It was in the glorious aftermath of that late, late victory over Sweden that Wiegman, to the surprise of many, let her emotions spill over, singing a song in Dutch, at the top of her voice in the middle of the pitch, surrounded by her team. They sprayed her with a water bottle. The gist of the lyrics was something about we're not going home. A Dutchwoman who has been bewitched by English football, our passion, our refusal to accept defeat and our fighting spirit, might just be bringing football home again.
