麻豆约拍

True tales of murder from the days when police cars had bells and the men from the Yard wore trilby hats.

Six more murder cases featuring Dr Keith Simpson, the celebrated pathologist.

During the Second World War and the Portsmouth blitz, a pub landlady Rose Robinson is found strangled.

Suspicion falls on a petty crook, Harold Loughans, but he'd lost the fingers of one hand in an accident.

Would it have been possible for him to strangle the dead woman? And why did he face three trials?

麻豆约拍 TV's Crimewatch presenter Nick Ross reviews the case and the forensic evidence.

Written by Rib Davis.
