Crime Night! on ABC and ABC iview S1E3 – Host Julia Zemiro and expert criminologists Professor.
Danielle Reynald and Dr. David Bartlett are joined by Alexei Toliopoulos and Lizzy Hoo to dive into the ubiquitous world of surveillance.
The panel traces the evolution of surveillance from its origins to its modern-day presence in street cameras, smartphones, and supermarket checkouts. They discuss how surveillance shapes behaviour through the ”Panopticon effect”.
This episode of Crime Night! leaves us pondering whether surveillance makes us safer or diminishes our freedom, illustrating that in today’s world, the line between security and intrusion is increasingly blurred, and we are all under watch more than ever before.

About the Show
Crime Night! puts crime under the microscope this November – Hosted by the award-winning Julia Zemiro, ABC’s brand new entertainment show Crime Night! premieres on Wednesday 5 November at 8.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.
The six-part series dives beneath the surface of crime to explore the science and psychology behind it all.
Each week Julia is joined by expert criminologists Professor Danielle Reynald and Dr David Bartlett, alongside a rotating panel of Australia’s sharpest comedians to unpack a different area of crime and criminology. Special guests include Celia Pacquola, Mel Buttle, Claire Hooper, Rhys Nicholson, Susie Youssef, Nick Cody, Ryan Shelton, Lizzy Hoo, Alexei Toliopoulos and Steph Tisdell.
Each episode features a unique Experiment of the Week, where panellists or the studio audience become unwitting accomplices in testing long-held assumptions about criminal behaviour.
Adding to the mix is comedy sensation, Lou Wall, who delivers their own analysis on a quirky criminal curiosity tied to the week’s theme.
While the criminologists share insightful analysis and the comedians ask the questions we’re all dying to know, Crime Night! blends real-life criminal cases, witty storytelling and entertaining social experiments to expose the frailties, illusions and delusions of our very human obsession with crime.
