The brand-new true crime drama is set to air on BBC One, and viewers want to know if The Sixth Commandment is based on a true story.
Starring Timothy Spall and Anne Reid, the new four-part drama tells a chilling story of deception, fraud and murder in the village of Maids Moreton, Buckinghamshire, and the extraordinary events that unfolded over the following years. Despite the events taking place in Buckinghamshire, The Sixth Commandment filmed in and around a bustling area of the South West. What viewers also may not know, is that the tale is based on the real murder of former teacher and lecturer Peter Farquhar and the manipulation of his neighbour Anne Moore-Martin.
