Stolen Years: 3. Lucky Man

Shadow World - Stolen Years: Andrew Malkinson's wrongful conviction of a brutal rape in 2003 has been recognised as one of the worst miscarriages of justice in UK history. He's angry and says the criminal justice and appeal systems let him down. Now that the right man has been convicted, he wants answers, and reform. So why did he spend all those years in prison while the perpetrator remained free? And what does his case tell us about the justice system that failed him? In Shadow World: Stolen Years, filmmaker and journalist Jemma Gander (co-director of The Wrong Man: 17 Years Behind Bars) follows the next chapter of this extraordinary case. As Andrew tries to rebuild his life, fresh questions emerge about the role of the police, the courts, and the institutions that failed him. "You don't know what you're capable of withstanding until you are forced to. But it's just horrific". Twenty three years later, a man is found guilty of the crime Andrew Malkinson was falsely accused of.
