BBC One’s latest true-crime drama,The Sixth Commandment, tells the chilling true story of how a young student called Ben Field gaslit and abused two neighbours, and murdered one.
The show, which is available in full on BBC iPlayer now, stars Timothy Spall as Peter Farquhar, a teacher and academic who in the early 2010s was duped into thinking Field (played by Éanna Hardwicke) was in love with him.
