Ray Mears has told the 'real story' of the part he played in helping to track down fugitive gunman Raoul Moat and the massive risk it carried.
On Tuesday night, ITV's The Hunt for Raoul Moat came to an end, with the third and final episode of the true crime drama focusing on the latter stages of the huge police operation to find killer Moat in July 10, with the man hunt coming to an nd with a stand off Rothbury, a week after he killed Christopher Brown, the new boyfriend of ex Samantha Stobbart, before shooting and blinding PC David Rathband.
After the shootings, Moat, aided by two accomplices, headed to Northumberland, evading detection for a number of days. His accomplices were caught by police, as a discarded tent belonging to Moat was found in woodland in Rothbury and, behind the scenes, TV survival expert Ray offered his expertise to help find the killer.
