All of the cases featured in Series 4 of Murdertown stand out for actor and presenter Emilia Fox "because they're all unique in their own way". "They're all appalling crimes", she said after she was filmed visiting different British communities where high-profile murders took place - including Rotherham, Glasgow and on the Lincolnshire coast.
Episode 5: Mablethorpe airs on Sunday (October 9) at 9pm, where the spotlight is thrown back on to Trusthorpe, and a tiny bungalow at Radio St Peters, once the the refuge for former Carlton couple John and Joan Stirland, who were executed on a hot summers day on Sunday, August 8, 2004, by unidentified gunmen.
Emilia, who stars as Dr. Nikki Alexander on BBC crime drama Silent Witness, travelled to the Lincolnshire coast to learn about the violent murders, their links to organised crime in Nottingham, and the investigation into the deaths which led to the downfall of one of Nottinghamshire's most feared underworld figures, Colin Gunn from Bestwood.
