After watching the ITV drama DES, Robert & Amanda share their thoughts on the accuracy of the miniseries and the characterisation of the title character, as portrayed by David Tennant.

Then, a replay of our original profile of Nilsen from Season 4 to refresh your memory.

Dennis Nilsen was a Scotsman living in Britain who murdered 15 men over a four year period.

The low ranking civil servant kept his victims’ bodies for days, often sleeping next to them, before finally disposing of them when they began to smell. 

He disposed of those bodies by either torching them or flushing them down the toilet. 

Keep listening right to the very end for a powerful interview with one of Nilsen's victims who got away.
