Canoe Man John Darwin has been forgiven by one of his sons for faking his death at sea...but rejected by the other.
Millions have watched the ITV drama ‘The Thief, His Wife and the Canoe’, the ‘unbelievably true’ story of John, 71, and his wife Anne Darwin.
They claimed around £500,000 in an insurance scam based on his ‘death’ in a kayak in March 2002. The most astonishing aspect of their crime was the ‘unthinkable’ deception of their sons Mark and Anthony.
