There have been several documentaries about this just in the last year. There was that dire channel 5 one, a Sky one, a BBC one too I think. What these all have in common is that they all fall for the Mr Kipper / JC narrative. The police think JC did it, but they can't quite get the evidence together.
A rational person watching would say Well, if they can't get the evidence together, why do the police think JC did it? The actual total case against JC is this: he was a recently released sex offender (how many others had recently been released?) who temporarily lived 4.5 miles away until just before she disappeared. He was later convicted of abduction and murder. He looks in some people's opinion like one of the three Mr Kipper sketches.
And that's it. That's the entire case. Every other bit of "evidence" surfaced years later or only after he'd been named.
Maybe the way in for a TV programme is to start by debunking that. Then the question of where SJL really went that day and whom else she was embroiled with gets surfaced. And thence to the railway embankment.
What is quite funny in a way is that JC has been trolling the police literally for years by suggesting that he might know more about this case. He's now started to backpedal frantically as he has realised that his having done this could be used to keep him in jail indefinitely...
