In March 2018, former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia were found fighting for their lives on a park bench in Salisbury.
They were poisoned with Novichok - one of the most toxic man-made substances ever created. Four months later, Dawn Sturgess – an innocent British mother of three, died from Novichok poisoning. Her death, by the hands of Russia, was the result of the first known nerve agent attack on British soil since the Second World War.

David Newton was arrested more than 11 years after he murdered vulnerable pensioner Una Crown. He faced overwhelming DNA-based evidence, acquired using new techniques. This secured a conviction which saw his handed a life sentence, with a minimum term of 21 years. But it was his response to being arrested which was the most surprising - he told camera crews filming 24 Hours in Police Custody that he was unfazed by the detention, stating ‘What’s going to happen is going to happen’. Utterly chilling.

On the 27th September 2023, on her way to school, Elianne Andam was murdered in Croydon town centre by Hassan Sentamu.
The day before the attack, CCTV captured Elianne and her friends meeting Hassan. Hassan was the ex-boyfriend of one of Elianne’s friends. Things quickly escalated, leading to water being thrown at him by a friend of the ex-girlfriend. The encounter had been recorded and Hassan was left feeling humiliated.
Later that evening, his text messages hinted at a dark plan beginning to form.

During a six-week walk across some of the most dangerous terrain in Africa, explorer Lucy Shepherd visited a tribe in Tanzania who offered her a unique opportunity.
Upon receiving the gift of a goat to cook for the community, the Hadza tribe asked if one of Lucy’s group, Moses, would be willing to prepare the goat. This was seen as an honour, as this meant that the tribe saw Moses as one of their own.
Once the goat was cooked, the oldest men in the community get to eat first. The first thing that the eldest, in this case it was Julius from Lucy’s team, got to sample the delicacy that is a goat’s testicle.
Such a privilege is one that only the men of the community usually get to experience. But Lucy was massively surprised when Julius, with the blessing of the tribe, offered her the second of the goat’s testicles.
This meant that Lucy became the first woman to ever eat a goat’s testicle with the tribe.
