Screenwriter George Kay (Hijack, Lupin, The Long Shadow, Criminal UK) was talking with his mother about a potential project: would he be interested in writing a script about the Lord Lucan mystery?

Then, she dropped the bombshell: he had a personal link with the other Lucan nanny Christabel Boyce.

George wanted to speak with Christabel - she would be a primary source and knew the main characters from ‘74.

This was impossible, his mother said. Christabel had herself been murdered by her husband ten years later.

In this conversation, George and Behind the Crimes host Rob Murphy discuss how a private diary found by police investigating Cristabel’s murder in 1985 shed new light on Sandra’s killing.

And the parallels between the Lucan marriage and the Boyce’s are chilling.

Parts 1 and 2 of this trilogy are available, you may want to listen to these first.
