In the first episode of season 8, I tell the story of Nathan Matthews, Shauna Hoare and Becky Watts.

On February 19, 2015, Nathan strangled Becky, his step-sister, to death at her home in Bristol.

He then transported Becky's body to his girlfriend's house and dismembered her using a circular saw.

The body parts were then taken to one of Nathan's friend's houses and dumped in his shed.

On November 13, 2015, Nathan Matthews was found guilty of murdering Becky Watts and handed a life sentence with a minimum term of 33 years.

Shauna Hoare, Nathan's girlfriend, was found guilty of manslaughter at the same trial and handed a 17-year sentence.
