WATCHING THE DETECTIVES - The Marion Crofts Murder (BBC 1, 2003)

This is still a difficult watch for me. Marion lived and died a mile or two from where I grew up and probably passed the end of my road on that fateful day. She went to my school, although she was in my brother's year and this happened before I started there. Her teacher, the late Alan Roberts (interviewed here), was my history teacher and had a positive part to play in the direction my life took. My brother came home once saying he had been cycling along the Basingstoke Canal and had seen a soldier with blood on his clothing but, so many years on, I can't remember if this had anything to do with the murder. Everyone at Court Moor knew about Marion. We still had TV crews occasionally arriving to interview the headmaster years afterwards. I'm not ashamed to say I shed a tear watching this again. I hope that bastard never gets released.
