Heartless pig farmer David Venables killed his wife Brenda Venables in 1982 to continue an affair with another woman – her remains went undiscovered for nearly 40 years.
But Venables’ lies finally unraveled in 2019 when unsuspecting workers made a grizzly discovery while clearing an underground chamber at his old home.
In this True Crime UK documentary Mark Williams-Thomas confronts the killer on the doorstep of his home nearly 40 years after he killed his wife and buried her remains.
Featuring insight from Worcester News reporter Sam Greenway, the film explores the life of the couple prior to the murder, the discovery, and David's eventual trial.
