What is it, Dad?
17
00:02:05,895 --> 00:02:07,933
You said there was a match today.
18
00:02:07,934 --> 00:02:10,173
Oh, yeah.
Only a crappy school thing.
19
00:02:10,174 --> 00:02:11,934
Oh, well, I wanna come. Where is it?
20
00:02:11,935 --> 00:02:14,374
No, Dad, seriously,
it's not that type of match.
21
00:02:14,375 --> 00:02:16,495
No parents are gonna be there.
22
00:02:16,535 --> 00:02:18,402

How's the report coming?
ACPO are asking.
30
00:02:44,134 --> 00:02:46,133
Yeah, should be with you

00:02:46,134 --> 00:02:47,494
Any nasty surprises?
32
00:02:47,495 --> 00:02:50,573
I wish. It's gonna be a job
for me to find something to do.

00:02:50,574 --> 00:02:52,507
I have a hunch you'll manage.

00:04:27,095 --> 00:04:29,414

00:04:34,054 --> 00:04:35,654

00:04:58,575 --> 00:05:01,975
Take-away, DVD?
55
00:05:02,015 --> 00:05:03,574
I've cleared it with Mum.
56
00:05:03,575 --> 00:05:06,254
I said I'd stay over at Ryan's.
57
00:05:06,294 --> 00:05:08,827
Can't you stay at Ryan's
another night?
58
00:05:12,294 --> 00:05:15,134
I was thinking, how about you spend
one week with me,
59
00:05:15,135 --> 00:05:16,334
one week with your mum...?
60
00:05:16,335 --> 00:05:19,575
You know, that gives Mum and Mike
some space, too.
61
00:05:19,614 --> 00:05:21,253
Did Mum ask you to do this?
62
00:05:21,254 --> 00:05:22,494
No!
63
00:05:22,535 --> 00:05:24,934
But she's fine about it,
if you are.
64
00:05:27,335 --> 00:05:29,015
Can I think about it?
65
00:05:30,975 --> 00:05:33,374
Absolutely. Yeah.
66
00:05:33,414 --> 00:05:37,095
Look, go and stay at Ryan's tonight
and we'll chat.
67
00:05:37,135 --> 00:05:38,535
Come here.

where DNA has played a key role
in solving cold cases,
73
00:06:07,535 --> 00:06:09,694
attention will inevitably turn to
74
00:06:09,695 --> 00:06:13,734
unsolved murders in Wales,
most notably the double murders
75
00:06:13,775 --> 00:06:16,293
of Peter and Gwenda Dixon
in Pembrokeshire.
76
00:06:16,294 --> 00:06:17,694
Jonathan Hill reports.
77
00:06:17,695 --> 00:06:20,894
Over 17 years ago,
the couple were blasted to death
78
00:06:20,895 --> 00:06:24,814
with a shotgun by an unknown killer
as they walked along here
79
00:06:24,854 --> 00:06:28,414
at the Coastal Path in Little Haven
in Pembrokeshire.
80
00:06:28,455 --> 00:06:30,373
Despite
a huge police investigation,
81
00:06:30,374 --> 00:06:32,173
no-one was ever charged
for the crime,
82
00:06:32,174 --> 00:06:35,775
and the Dixon family's long wait
for justice continues.
83
00:06:35,814 --> 00:06:38,134
A lot of people have said
they no longer feel comfortable
84
00:06:38,135 --> 00:06:40,068
coming to this path any more.
85
00:06:40,655 --> 00:06:43,055
They say
it no longer feels the same.
86
00:06:44,934 --> 00:06:46,933
We asked Dyfed Powys Police
for a comment
87
00:06:46,934 --> 00:06:48,894
but were told that no-one
was available.
88
00:06:48,895 --> 00:06:51,294
Old news?
89
00:06:51,335 --> 00:06:55,094
Meanwhile, the identity of John
and Gwenda Dixon's vicious killer
90
00:06:55,095 --> 00:06:56,455
remains unknown.
91
00:07:03,494 --> 00:07:05,294
How you settling in, Steve?
92
00:07:06,254 --> 00:07:07,934
It's like I never left.
93
00:07:08,335 --> 00:07:10,694
I found only one area
where we're exposed.
94
00:07:10,695 --> 00:07:13,293
No thorough forensic reviews
of serious crimes.
95
00:07:13,294 --> 00:07:15,174
Most notably Coastal Path.
96
00:07:16,614 --> 00:07:17,974
You saw the news.
97
00:07:19,535 --> 00:07:22,054
Yeah. What's the story?
98
00:07:25,775 --> 00:07:29,174
The unlikelihood
of finding anything new.
99
00:07:29,215 --> 00:07:31,534
The distress that would cause
the Dixon family.
100
00:07:31,535 --> 00:07:34,413
And, if we failed,
the delight the media would take
101
00:07:34,414 --> 00:07:36,293
in hauling us through the muck.
102
00:07:36,294 --> 00:07:39,014
A few years back, they branded us
"institutionally incompetent",
103
00:07:39,015 --> 00:07:40,055
and it stuck.
104
00:07:42,254 --> 00:07:45,775
Well, it's about time
we did something about that.
105
00:07:45,814 --> 00:07:48,694
I'd like to take a look at Coastal
Path, see if there's anything there.
106
00:07:48,695 --> 00:07:50,135
That OK with you?
107
00:07:50,174 --> 00:07:52,107
You don't need my permission.
108
00:07:52,614 --> 00:07:56,215
DCI George Jones was SIO on it.
Is he still about?
109
00:07:56,254 --> 00:08:00,095
Yeah, he is. But, Steve,
go easy on the old bloke.
110
00:08:21,655 --> 00:08:23,574
Thank you for seeing me, sir.
111
00:08:23,575 --> 00:08:24,813
A police dog found them.
112
00:08:24,814 --> 00:08:27,173
Six days
after they were reported missing.
113
00:08:27,174 --> 00:08:28,975
HE SIGHS
114
00:08:29,015 --> 00:08:31,482
The maggots gave us
the time of death.
115
00:08:32,494 --> 00:08:36,462
After he murdered them, the attacker
stole Peter Dixon's wallet
116
00:08:36,494 --> 00:08:38,415
and wedding ring.
117
00:08:38,455 --> 00:08:40,853
It's not much of a reason
to end two lives, is it?
118
00:08:40,854 --> 00:08:43,133
Gwenda Dixon was sexually assaulted
119
00:08:43,134 --> 00:08:45,974
with her husband lying dead
not six feet away.
120
00:08:45,975 --> 00:08:47,974
He was a sick, sadistic bastard.
121
00:08:47,975 --> 00:08:49,774
He didn't need a reason.
122
00:08:53,215 --> 00:08:54,895
We did the best we could.
123
00:09:00,175 --> 00:09:02,042
I won't be made a scapegoat.
124
00:09:03,254 --> 00:09:05,187
That's not why I'm here, sir.
125
00:09:09,494 --> 00:09:12,094
So, four days after the murders,
a man walked into
126
00:09:12,095 --> 00:09:16,415
Pembroke Bespoke Jewellers
and sold a 22-carat gold band.
127
00:09:16,455 --> 00:09:20,294
The band matched the description of
Peter Dixon's stolen wedding ring.
128
00:09:20,295 --> 00:09:23,174
And the seller of the ring
had signed the receipt J Cooper.
129
00:09:23,175 --> 00:09:26,014
Now, on the basis of
this information,
130
00:09:26,055 --> 00:09:28,494
one of your team, a DC Dylan Rees?
131
00:09:29,854 --> 00:09:34,854
He questioned a John William Cooper
of 28 Rose Meadow Lane, Birchmede.
132
00:09:36,254 --> 00:09:37,733
Cooper said that the ring
was his own
133
00:09:37,734 --> 00:09:39,574
and that he sold it
because he needed the cash,
134
00:09:39,575 --> 00:09:41,853
and then his wife
confirmed the story.
135
00:09:41,854 --> 00:09:44,254
And then no further action
was taken.
136
00:09:45,575 --> 00:09:48,774
I'm curious to hear your view
on this.
137
00:09:48,815 --> 00:09:51,494
I sent a DC to do a DCI's job.
138
00:09:51,534 --> 00:09:54,494
I should've questioned Cooper
myself, but we...
139
00:09:54,534 --> 00:09:55,975
we were swamped.
140
00:09:57,014 --> 00:09:59,853
After the case was closed,
I learnt that Rees
141
00:09:59,854 --> 00:10:02,614
drank in the same pub as Cooper,
together.
142
00:10:03,614 --> 00:10:06,254
My view is that Cooper...
143
00:10:06,295 --> 00:10:09,055
used the fact
they knew each other.
144
00:10:09,095 --> 00:10:10,654
That Rees...
145
00:10:10,695 --> 00:10:12,134
was manipulated.
146
00:10:14,374 --> 00:10:16,907
- Where's Cooper now?
- Dyffryn Prison.
147
00:10:16,935 --> 00:10:20,647
He was sentenced to 16 years in 1998
for a string of, er...
148
00:10:21,215 --> 00:10:22,814
...burglaries and robberies.
149
00:10:22,815 --> 00:10:26,055
The investigation was codenamed
Huntsman.
150
00:10:26,095 --> 00:10:29,374
They interviewed Cooper,
but didn't get anything.
151
00:10:29,415 --> 00:10:33,455
16 years in 1998...
152
00:10:33,494 --> 00:10:36,502
If he's behaved himself,
he'll be up for parole.
153
00:10:41,374 --> 00:10:44,733
DCI JONES: Where it happened
is just below Talbenny church.
154
00:10:44,734 --> 00:10:47,614
The spot is marked by a plaque.
155
00:10:49,374 --> 00:10:52,830

So, you're doing a bit of digging
on John William Cooper?
161
00:12:04,254 --> 00:12:05,774
I am.
162
00:12:05,815 --> 00:12:08,682
Let's hope you have better luck
than we did.
163
00:12:14,215 --> 00:12:16,894
Operation Huntsman.
164
00:12:16,935 --> 00:12:18,374
This was us.
165
00:12:18,415 --> 00:12:20,694
There's a few odds and sods
stored elsewhere,
166
00:12:20,695 --> 00:12:24,374
but most of this was confiscated
from Cooper's home.
167
00:12:24,415 --> 00:12:26,095
The place was a pigsty.
168
00:12:27,975 --> 00:12:31,253
You arrested him for a string of
burglaries and robberies,
169
00:12:31,254 --> 00:12:34,334
but you also questioned him
about the murders at Coastal Path.
170
00:12:34,335 --> 00:12:36,494
- Why?
- His MO, sir.
171
00:12:36,534 --> 00:12:39,694
We did him for a robbery that was
a carbon copy of the Coastal Path.
172
00:12:39,695 --> 00:12:42,055
Robbery, tied-up victim, a shotgun.
173
00:12:42,095 --> 00:12:45,551
That's why we also questioned him
about Scoveston Park.
174
00:12:46,734 --> 00:12:48,574
20 years ago, Scoveston Park?
175
00:12:48,575 --> 00:12:51,095
21 years ago now.
December, '85.
176
00:12:52,215 --> 00:12:54,975

- Brother and sister.
- Richard and Helen Thomas.
178
00:13:01,095 --> 00:13:03,893
The difference was that
the killer resorted to arson
179
00:13:03,894 --> 00:13:06,427
to cover his tracks.
He started a fire.
180
00:13:07,215 --> 00:13:09,695
He completely destroyed the place.
181
00:13:09,734 --> 00:13:11,574
Tough on evidence gathering.
182
00:13:11,575 --> 00:13:13,908
Yeah.
And even tougher on forensics.
183
00:13:15,415 --> 00:13:17,613
Did Cooper tell you anything
in the interviews?
184
00:13:17,614 --> 00:13:20,294
Nothing. When we mentioned
the murders, he just shut down.
185
00:13:20,295 --> 00:13:22,134
We had to move on.
186
00:13:22,175 --> 00:13:23,493
With all the lesser offences,
187
00:13:23,494 --> 00:13:26,935
we found almost every single
stolen item in his home.
188
00:13:26,975 --> 00:13:29,575
You charge them with
what you can prove.
189
00:13:30,695 --> 00:13:32,574
- Did you speak to the family?
- We did.
190
00:13:32,575 --> 00:13:34,414
Yeah, the wife gave us nothing.
191
00:13:34,415 --> 00:13:36,653
She was more frightened of him
than us.
192
00:13:36,654 --> 00:13:38,575
The son was useful.
193
00:13:38,614 --> 00:13:40,334
Yeah, he hated his dad, though.
194
00:13:40,335 --> 00:13:42,535
He wanted nothing to do with him.
195
00:13:44,014 --> 00:13:47,013
WOMAN: The reason your Disability
Allowance payment has been delayed
196
00:13:47,014 --> 00:13:48,853
is because
you changed your first name.
197
00:13:48,854 --> 00:13:51,294
Yeah, eight years ago,
by statutory declaration.
198
00:13:51,295 --> 00:13:53,694
I gave you people
a copy of the certificate!
199
00:13:53,695 --> 00:13:55,095
Look...
200
00:13:55,134 --> 00:13:56,533
I've had enough of this.
201
00:13:56,534 --> 00:13:58,414
Can you get a manager on the line,
please?
202
00:13:58,415 --> 00:14:01,014
I'm not authorised to do that, sir.
203
00:14:01,055 --> 00:14:03,493
- What's your first name, Mr Cooper?
- Andrew.
204
00:14:03,494 --> 00:14:05,415
Not Adrian, Andrew.
205
00:14:05,455 --> 00:14:07,095
Andrew Cooper.
206
00:14:07,134 --> 00:14:08,215
And...
207
00:14:08,254 --> 00:14:10,174
don't talk to me
like I'm an idiot.
208
00:14:10,175 --> 00:14:13,247
- Hold the line, please, sir.
- No, please don't...
209
00:14:13,415 --> 00:14:17,575
MALE VOICE: Please continue to
hold. Your call is important to us.
210
00:14:29,805 --> 00:14:31,805
DOOR OPENS
211
00:14:31,844 --> 00:14:33,844
- Hi, Dad.
- Oh, hello!
212
00:14:35,445 --> 00:14:36,484
Laundry.
213
00:14:36,525 --> 00:14:40,363
The machine at the salon's on the
blink and you're closer than Mum's.
214
00:14:40,364 --> 00:14:41,685
Well...
215
00:14:42,884 --> 00:14:45,551
...good to know
I'm useful for something.
216
00:15:09,884 --> 00:15:11,244
Payment.
217
00:15:13,405 --> 00:15:15,285
"Maximum hold."
218
00:15:15,325 --> 00:15:17,084
Thank you, love.
219
00:15:17,124 --> 00:15:19,244
The place is looking nice now.
220
00:15:19,285 --> 00:15:20,645
Very tidy.
221
00:15:20,685 --> 00:15:24,077
It'll do, until I find something
a bit more permanent.
222
00:15:24,084 --> 00:15:27,045
Do you want to stay,
have a bite to eat?
223
00:15:27,084 --> 00:15:28,244
Sorry.
224
00:15:28,285 --> 00:15:29,723
Late for the cinema.
225
00:15:29,724 --> 00:15:31,404
OK, love, enjoy yourself.
226
00:15:36,244 --> 00:15:38,644
Jack's really chuffed
that you're back.
227
00:15:38,645 --> 00:15:40,004
Is he?
228
00:15:40,045 --> 00:15:41,805
Don't try too hard.
229
00:15:42,844 --> 00:15:44,724
Just give him a bit of time.
230
00:15:45,765 --> 00:15:47,884
Right, OK.
231
00:15:47,925 --> 00:15:50,058
I'll pick up the stuff tomorrow.
232
00:15:50,084 --> 00:15:51,124
Hey...
233
00:15:52,244 --> 00:15:54,044
When did you become so mature?
234
00:15:54,045 --> 00:15:56,484
Ages ago.
235
00:15:56,525 --> 00:15:58,165
I'm a girl.
236
00:16:10,244 --> 00:16:12,964
SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC
237
00:16:25,325 --> 00:16:27,844
John William Cooper.
Do you know him?
238
00:16:27,884 --> 00:16:31,203
Yeah, I've heard of him.
And Operation Huntsman, obviously.
239
00:16:31,204 --> 00:16:34,044
What would you say if I told you
his offending kit for the robberies
240
00:16:34,045 --> 00:16:36,444
was black gloves, balaclava
and shotgun?
241
00:16:36,445 --> 00:16:38,364
I'd say Nolton Hill Estate.
242
00:16:41,724 --> 00:16:43,203
The shotgun he used,
243
00:16:43,204 --> 00:16:46,684
recovered from a robbery gone wrong
in the village of Sardis.
244
00:16:46,685 --> 00:16:49,483
It was the customised shoulder strap
which got my attention.
245
00:16:49,484 --> 00:16:51,164
Sawn-off, modified stock.
246
00:16:52,244 --> 00:16:53,524
Jesus, Steve, is it him?
247
00:16:53,525 --> 00:16:55,244
Him who?
248
00:16:55,285 --> 00:16:56,964
What's going on?
249
00:16:57,004 --> 00:16:59,004
Do you remember Nolton Hill?
250
00:17:00,204 --> 00:17:02,603
Ten years ago.
A few months before I left.
251
00:17:02,604 --> 00:17:05,324
A masked man with a shotgun
attacked five teenagers
252
00:17:05,325 --> 00:17:06,603
near the Nolton Hill Estate.
253
00:17:06,604 --> 00:17:09,403
One of the girls was raped.
Another sexually assaulted.
254
00:17:09,404 --> 00:17:11,603
- It was never solved.
- I remember.
255
00:17:11,604 --> 00:17:13,603
DI Richards and myself
were called in to assist.
256
00:17:13,604 --> 00:17:15,844
The two boys knew about guns.
257
00:17:15,884 --> 00:17:17,524
Yeah, they used to do
a bit of rabbiting.
258
00:17:17,525 --> 00:17:20,843
Their description of the shotgun
that the attacker used
259
00:17:20,844 --> 00:17:22,284
exactly matched that gun.
260
00:17:22,285 --> 00:17:24,285
Hang on. Back up a bit, Steve.
261
00:17:24,325 --> 00:17:26,524
The last I heard,
you were looking at Coastal Path.
262
00:17:26,525 --> 00:17:27,844
I was.
263
00:17:27,884 --> 00:17:29,084
I am.
264
00:17:30,364 --> 00:17:32,044
And that led me to this.
265
00:17:34,005 --> 00:17:36,124
I'll ask you again, John,
266
00:17:36,164 --> 00:17:38,883
regarding the murders
of Peter and Gwenda Dixon
267
00:17:38,884 --> 00:17:42,444
on the morning
of Thursday 29th June, 1989,
268
00:17:42,485 --> 00:17:44,618
were you the person responsible?
269
00:17:45,164 --> 00:17:47,684
I am not a murderer.
270
00:17:47,725 --> 00:17:49,923
- Strong accent.
- South Pembrokeshire.
271
00:17:49,924 --> 00:17:51,164
Watch this...
272
00:17:51,205 --> 00:17:53,725
John, what about Scoveston Park?
273
00:17:53,765 --> 00:17:56,843
We have witnesses who say that
you knew Richard and Helen Thomas.
274
00:17:56,844 --> 00:17:59,284
My client is exercising
his right to silence.
275
00:17:59,285 --> 00:18:02,018
John...
Come on, John, don't be like that.
276
00:18:03,485 --> 00:18:04,525
John.
277
00:18:04,565 --> 00:18:05,684
John!
278
00:18:06,805 --> 00:18:08,285
Steve...
279
00:18:08,325 --> 00:18:11,004
ever since Huntsman,
gossip has put Cooper in the frame
280
00:18:11,005 --> 00:18:13,443
- for 101 offences.
- I'm talking about just three.
281
00:18:13,444 --> 00:18:17,124
Coastal Path, Scoveston Park,
Nolton Hill.
282
00:18:19,525 --> 00:18:21,644
I think he did them all.
283
00:18:51,364 --> 00:18:53,285
PHONE RINGS
284
00:18:54,525 --> 00:18:56,404
Not now, Jack.
285
00:19:02,525 --> 00:19:03,805
Here they come.
286
00:19:06,565 --> 00:19:09,204
How did Operation Huntsman
miss all this?
287
00:19:09,205 --> 00:19:10,403
They didn't, ma'am.
288
00:19:10,404 --> 00:19:12,603
They questioned Cooper
on all three cases
289
00:19:12,604 --> 00:19:14,404
and he just stayed mute.
290
00:19:14,444 --> 00:19:18,092
Plus, as I touched on earlier,
there was no hard evidence.
291
00:19:18,965 --> 00:19:20,843
Where's your hard evidence, Steve?
292
00:19:20,844 --> 00:19:23,604
It's waiting for us to find, ma'am.
293
00:19:23,644 --> 00:19:26,244
Thanks to Huntsman
and the original investigations,
294
00:19:26,245 --> 00:19:29,565
we have access to over 3,000
exhibits in storage.
295
00:19:29,604 --> 00:19:33,284
That's a potential treasure trove
of victim and perpetrator DNA.
296
00:19:33,285 --> 00:19:34,683
At the time of Huntsman,
297
00:19:34,684 --> 00:19:37,244
the science wasn't up to scratch
on age-degraded trace DNA.
298
00:19:37,245 --> 00:19:40,381
But as we know,
things have come a long way since.
299
00:19:41,045 --> 00:19:42,804
Say you get enough to charge him.
300
00:19:42,805 --> 00:19:46,484
Charging a man with the murders
of four adults is clear, simple.
301
00:19:46,485 --> 00:19:49,884
But you add five minors, rape,
sexual assault,
302
00:19:49,924 --> 00:19:51,964
the Crown's case could seem muddled.
303
00:19:51,965 --> 00:19:54,285
The CPS won't like that.
304
00:19:54,325 --> 00:19:57,524
Perhaps it would be wiser to confine
the review to the two murders.
305
00:19:57,525 --> 00:20:01,725
With respect, ma'am, I interviewed
the five victims as a WDC.
306
00:20:01,765 --> 00:20:04,765
And it made quite an impression
on me.
307
00:20:04,805 --> 00:20:07,244
So much so, I've kept tabs on them
over the years.
308
00:20:07,245 --> 00:20:09,603
Now, some are doing better
than others, but...
309
00:20:09,604 --> 00:20:12,285
all of them have been
scarred for life.
310
00:20:12,325 --> 00:20:14,683
They had their childhood
stolen from them that night.
311
00:20:14,684 --> 00:20:17,684
They deserve another chance
at justice.
312
00:20:17,725 --> 00:20:20,004
As do all the victims
and their families.
313
00:20:20,005 --> 00:20:22,044
All I'm saying is,
if you try to prove too much,
314
00:20:22,045 --> 00:20:24,205
you could lose everything.
315
00:20:24,245 --> 00:20:28,524
The killings at Scoveston Park and
Coastal Path are like two bricks.
316
00:20:28,525 --> 00:20:32,123
And the attacks on the kids is
the mortar that holds them together.
317
00:20:32,124 --> 00:20:34,644
It has elements of both cases.
318
00:20:34,684 --> 00:20:36,565
And, ma'am, erm...
319
00:20:36,604 --> 00:20:38,083
what are the odds that offences,
320
00:20:38,084 --> 00:20:41,124
which share so much similar
fact evidence,
321
00:20:41,164 --> 00:20:44,812
in such a small area,
were committed by more than one man?
322
00:20:47,765 --> 00:20:51,204
You know, if we reinvestigate
and it doesn't go our way,
323
00:20:51,205 --> 00:20:55,565
the media, the public, the families,
they'll crucify us.
324
00:20:55,604 --> 00:20:58,612
And if we don't go ahead,
it could be far worse.
325
00:20:58,884 --> 00:21:00,244
We've put a call into MAPPA.
326
00:21:00,245 --> 00:21:02,564
A date's been set
for his parole hearing.
327
00:21:02,565 --> 00:21:04,284
He could be out in three months.
328
00:21:04,285 --> 00:21:06,404
If he did do these murders,
329
00:21:06,444 --> 00:21:08,911
he is, by definition,
a serial killer.
330
00:21:09,725 --> 00:21:13,444
And given the opportunity,
men like him...
331
00:21:13,485 --> 00:21:15,165
they always kill again.
332
00:21:28,404 --> 00:21:29,805
Next.
333
00:21:54,325 --> 00:21:57,644
The next time you visit,
make an effort, will you?
334
00:21:59,725 --> 00:22:02,124
You look like an old woman.
335
00:22:02,164 --> 00:22:03,965
Adrian's back.
336
00:22:04,005 --> 00:22:05,205
What?
337
00:22:05,245 --> 00:22:07,083
I saw Shirley from Birchmede.
338
00:22:07,084 --> 00:22:09,964
Her daughter's a receptionist
in the hospital.
339
00:22:09,965 --> 00:22:12,363
Apparently,
he was walking with a stick.
340
00:22:12,364 --> 00:22:13,684
A stick?
341
00:22:13,725 --> 00:22:16,284
- Well, that's gotta be a scam.
- Well, that's what she said.
342
00:22:16,285 --> 00:22:18,284
Anyway, Adrian wasn't like that.
343
00:22:18,285 --> 00:22:19,644
He was a worker.
344
00:22:19,684 --> 00:22:21,564
What, you're defending him now,
are you, hm?
345
00:22:21,565 --> 00:22:23,844
He's dead to us.
346
00:22:37,005 --> 00:22:38,364
HE GASPS
347
00:22:38,404 --> 00:22:41,005
Sorry, Andrew. Did I hurt you?
348
00:22:41,045 --> 00:22:42,805
It wasn't you.
349
00:22:43,965 --> 00:22:46,564
It's all right, just relax,
I've got you.
350
00:22:46,565 --> 00:22:50,164
HE BREATHES HEAVILY
351
00:23:18,045 --> 00:23:20,164
28 Rose Meadow Lane.
352
00:23:20,205 --> 00:23:22,872
Cooper's last home
before he went inside.
353
00:23:23,884 --> 00:23:26,163
Walk in any direction
from this point
354
00:23:26,164 --> 00:23:29,484
and you'll hit a home he targeted
between '83 and '96.
355
00:23:29,485 --> 00:23:31,163
It's the hub of the wheel.
356
00:23:31,164 --> 00:23:32,844
In this tiny area,
357
00:23:32,884 --> 00:23:36,364
34 burglaries and robberies,
one rape of a minor,
358
00:23:36,404 --> 00:23:38,671
one indecent assault of a minor...
359
00:23:39,245 --> 00:23:40,765
...and two murders.
360
00:23:43,285 --> 00:23:44,885
If walls could talk.
361
00:23:52,005 --> 00:23:53,725
Been back since?
362
00:23:53,765 --> 00:23:56,565
A few times to see how the kids
were doing.
363
00:24:01,604 --> 00:24:05,004
So, I was thinking a start-up team
of six, including us,
364
00:24:05,005 --> 00:24:06,284
cherry-picked from division.
365
00:24:06,285 --> 00:24:09,045
That way, we can keep things covert
366
00:24:09,084 --> 00:24:10,683
and it should be easier
on our budget.
367
00:24:10,684 --> 00:24:12,444
Mm, sounds like a plan.
368
00:24:13,765 --> 00:24:16,044
I really appreciate you bringing me
in on this, Steve.
369
00:24:16,045 --> 00:24:18,565
Your reputation brought you in.
370
00:24:18,604 --> 00:24:21,045
WDC to DI in ten years.
371
00:24:21,084 --> 00:24:23,084
Says Mr DS to Superintendent.
372
00:24:23,124 --> 00:24:24,565
London.
373
00:24:24,604 --> 00:24:26,404
The worst years of my life.
374
00:24:29,604 --> 00:24:32,868
Yeah, I was sorry to hear about
you and your missus.
375
00:24:33,124 --> 00:24:34,805
It is what it is.
376
00:24:51,644 --> 00:24:54,716
They were so close to home
when he attacked them.
377
00:24:55,565 --> 00:24:57,444
It looks so bloody ordinary.
378
00:25:01,965 --> 00:25:04,084
To Operation Ottawa.
379
00:25:07,525 --> 00:25:09,125
To Operation Ottawa.
380
00:25:49,609 --> 00:25:50,889
NUMBER PAD BEEPS
381
00:26:11,410 --> 00:26:12,610
It's all right.
382
00:26:13,849 --> 00:26:15,809
This is home.
383
00:26:15,849 --> 00:26:17,729
The first rule of Operation Ottawa
384
00:26:17,730 --> 00:26:20,449
is you do not talk about
Operation Ottawa.
385
00:26:20,450 --> 00:26:22,649
The second rule of Operation Ottawa
is...?
386
00:26:22,650 --> 00:26:25,183
You do not talk about
Operation Ottawa.
387
00:26:25,450 --> 00:26:27,730
It's from Fight Club.
It's a film.
388
00:26:27,769 --> 00:26:30,609
Thank you, Barry Norman.
389
00:26:30,650 --> 00:26:35,009
We don't say a word to friends,
colleagues or family.
390
00:26:35,049 --> 00:26:37,529
Yeah, they'll get narky with us,
but it's the way it has to be.
391
00:26:37,530 --> 00:26:40,568
We don't want Cooper, or the media,
seeing us coming.
392
00:26:40,569 --> 00:26:42,049
Boss...
393
00:26:42,089 --> 00:26:44,809
Cold cases are 99% forensics.
394
00:26:44,849 --> 00:26:47,182
So, we need to do everything we can
395
00:26:47,210 --> 00:26:51,410
to help the scientists
find that DNA golden nugget,
396
00:26:51,450 --> 00:26:56,170
the DNA hit that unites culprit and
victim in the same time and place.
397
00:26:56,210 --> 00:26:57,449
Now, our forensics
398
00:26:57,450 --> 00:27:00,528
mustn't be tainted by any of
the work that's gone before.
399
00:27:00,529 --> 00:27:04,008
Previous investigations
had all their testing done in-house
400
00:27:04,009 --> 00:27:05,929
by the Forensic Science Service.
401
00:27:05,930 --> 00:27:08,089
But the science has moved on.
402
00:27:08,130 --> 00:27:10,368
We need a fresh pair of eyes
on this.
403
00:27:10,369 --> 00:27:11,490
Angela Gallop.
404
00:27:13,130 --> 00:27:14,689
She has been involved in
405
00:27:14,690 --> 00:27:16,929
some of the highest profile cases
of the last ten years.
406
00:27:16,930 --> 00:27:20,930
Lynette White, Stephen Lawrence,
Damilola Taylor.
407
00:27:20,970 --> 00:27:23,169
Dr Gallop and her team
are the best in the business.
408
00:27:23,170 --> 00:27:25,049
But they can only find
what they're looking for
409
00:27:25,050 --> 00:27:27,529
if they look in the right place.
And that's where we come in.
410
00:27:27,530 --> 00:27:29,409
We need to identify which items
of evidence
411
00:27:29,410 --> 00:27:33,849
are most likely to carry Cooper
and/or victim DNA in whatever form.
412
00:27:33,890 --> 00:27:36,450
Skin, hair, saliva, semen, blood.
413
00:27:36,490 --> 00:27:38,288
Now, in an ideal world,
there'd be no limit
414
00:27:38,289 --> 00:27:40,489
to the amount of exhibits
we could send for analysis.
415
00:27:40,490 --> 00:27:41,970
But...
416
00:27:42,009 --> 00:27:43,489
forensic work is not cheap.
417
00:27:43,490 --> 00:27:46,289
And our budget is finite.
418
00:27:46,329 --> 00:27:48,690
In short, whatever we send
419
00:27:48,730 --> 00:27:51,463
needs to be chosen
very fucking carefully.
420
00:27:53,490 --> 00:27:56,529
CRIMEWATCH THEME TUNE PLAYS
421
00:27:56,569 --> 00:27:58,088
Our first case tonight
422
00:27:58,089 --> 00:28:00,729
is an extraordinary double murder
in South Wales.
423
00:28:00,730 --> 00:28:03,210
On the evening of 22nd December,
1985,
424
00:28:03,250 --> 00:28:05,848
Richard Thomas
and his sister, Helen Thomas,
425
00:28:05,849 --> 00:28:07,649
were attacked in their home
426
00:28:07,650 --> 00:28:09,649
at Scoveston Park,
three miles outside Milford.
427
00:28:09,650 --> 00:28:11,449
She was shot,
probably in her bedroom.
428
00:28:11,450 --> 00:28:13,489
And it was in that room
at about ten o'clock
429
00:28:13,490 --> 00:28:15,169
that the fire was started.
430
00:28:15,170 --> 00:28:18,848
Richard Thomas died of shotgun
wounds to the stomach and the head.
431
00:28:18,849 --> 00:28:23,250
Emergency services were called
at 1:15am on 23rd of December.
432
00:28:23,289 --> 00:28:26,328
Scene of Crime Officers entered
the property the following morning
433
00:28:26,329 --> 00:28:27,848
and found Helen Thomas' body
on a bed.
434
00:28:27,849 --> 00:28:29,649
It's believed
she was sexually assaulted.
435
00:28:29,650 --> 00:28:32,130
On the morning of June 29th, 1989,
436
00:28:32,170 --> 00:28:36,769
Peter and Gwenda Dixon were murdered
on the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path
437
00:28:36,809 --> 00:28:38,088
near Little Haven.
438
00:28:38,089 --> 00:28:41,129
The couple from Oxford
decided to take a short walk
439
00:28:41,130 --> 00:28:43,328
while they waited for their tent
to dry.
440
00:28:43,329 --> 00:28:46,489
Their bodies were found six days
later on the cliffs at Little Haven.
441
00:28:46,490 --> 00:28:50,009
Now, one of Wales
most spectacular beauty spots...
442
00:28:50,049 --> 00:28:55,529
Between 7:45pm and 8:45pm
on Wednesday 6th March, 1996,
443
00:28:55,569 --> 00:29:00,529
five children, aged between 15
and 16, were attacked in a field
444
00:29:00,569 --> 00:29:01,929
next to the Norton Hill Estate.
445
00:29:01,930 --> 00:29:04,890
On the evening of November 22nd,
1996,
446
00:29:04,930 --> 00:29:08,849
a bungalow in Sardis,
six miles from Milford, was burgled.
447
00:29:08,890 --> 00:29:12,609
The victim was confronted
by a man in a balaclava.
448
00:29:12,650 --> 00:29:14,169
They were approached
by a masked man.
449
00:29:14,170 --> 00:29:16,449
The children were threatened,
told to lie on the ground.
450
00:29:16,450 --> 00:29:19,449
One of the girls was raped,
another indecently assaulted.
451
00:29:19,450 --> 00:29:23,008
The victim managed to press a panic
alarm, causing the offender to flee,
452
00:29:23,009 --> 00:29:24,929
depositing personal items as he ran.
453
00:29:24,930 --> 00:29:29,369
These included stolen jewellery,
items of clothing, a balaclava,
454
00:29:29,410 --> 00:29:33,009
some black gloves
and his double-barrel shotgun.
455
00:29:33,049 --> 00:29:35,249
One of the boys was struck
in the head
456
00:29:35,250 --> 00:29:37,489
with a sawn-off
double-barrel shotgun.
457
00:29:37,490 --> 00:29:41,690
Then husband and wife
were shot at point-blank range.
458
00:29:41,730 --> 00:29:45,288
Forensic evidence suggests
Gwenda Dixon was sexually assaulted
459
00:29:45,289 --> 00:29:47,009
at this location here.
460
00:29:47,049 --> 00:29:49,729
Most of the evidence
was destroyed in the fire.
461
00:29:49,730 --> 00:29:52,729
They did manage to retrieve
a sock belonging to Mr Thomas
462
00:29:52,730 --> 00:29:54,729
and a few other items,
but that's it.
463
00:29:54,730 --> 00:29:57,930
- No DNA would have survived a fire like that.
- No.
464
00:29:57,970 --> 00:30:00,328
Just save our money for items
more likely to yield a hit.
465
00:30:00,329 --> 00:30:02,062
Coastal Path, Nolton Hill.
466
00:30:02,089 --> 00:30:03,289
Agreed.
467
00:30:03,329 --> 00:30:05,689
But we still need to recover
any Scoveston Park exhibits
468
00:30:05,690 --> 00:30:08,157
that would support
our take on his MO.
469
00:30:09,089 --> 00:30:10,329
Exactly.
470
00:30:10,369 --> 00:30:11,608
Tied-up victims.
471
00:30:11,609 --> 00:30:14,088
The rope used to bind
Helen Thomas' hands.
472
00:30:14,089 --> 00:30:16,690
Helen Thomas' bra was torn.
473
00:30:16,730 --> 00:30:18,569
That's sexual assault.
474
00:30:36,769 --> 00:30:37,890
MTJ/29.
475
00:30:37,930 --> 00:30:39,890
- Er, clothing.
- Yeah.
476
00:30:40,930 --> 00:30:42,690

478
00:30:44,009 --> 00:30:45,608
Give me ten patch tests
479
00:30:45,609 --> 00:30:48,048
on that, corresponding with
the victim's bruising.
480
00:30:48,049 --> 00:30:49,130
Yeah.
481
00:30:49,170 --> 00:30:51,329
- CJE/16.
- Coastal Path rope.
482
00:30:51,369 --> 00:30:53,130
Despite a massive search
483
00:30:53,170 --> 00:30:55,368
for a suspect seen using
the Dixons' cash card...
484
00:30:55,369 --> 00:30:57,889
Peter Dixon's bank card
was used to withdraw cash
485
00:30:57,890 --> 00:31:00,289
from NatWest cashpoint machines
486
00:31:00,329 --> 00:31:03,450
at Pembroke, Haverfordwest
and Carmarthen.
487
00:31:03,490 --> 00:31:05,008
A man wearing shorts
488
00:31:05,009 --> 00:31:07,729
was seen by a member of the public
making one of these withdrawals.
489
00:31:07,730 --> 00:31:11,490
From this siting, police made
this artist's impression.
490
00:31:17,450 --> 00:31:21,650
Exhibit reference number MTJ/14,
black balaclava.
491
00:31:21,690 --> 00:31:24,650
Exhibit reference PH/2,
double-barrel shotgun.
492
00:31:25,890 --> 00:31:27,890
- The Sardis gun, yeah?
- Yeah.
493
00:31:28,450 --> 00:31:31,409
12 patches tested.
Six on the barrel, six on the stock.
494
00:31:31,410 --> 00:31:36,089
In total, officers recovered 66
items in a fairly straight line
495
00:31:36,130 --> 00:31:40,930
from the bungalow in Sardis
to 28 Rose Meadow Lane.

Yeah. You don't need to check, Dad,

00:33:43,009 --> 00:33:45,930
exploring the possibility that...
526
00:33:45,970 --> 00:33:47,729
the double murders at Coastal Path
527
00:33:47,730 --> 00:33:51,122
might be linked to the ones
at Scoveston Park in 1985.
528
00:33:51,809 --> 00:33:53,876
That would be a problem for us.
529
00:33:54,809 --> 00:33:56,329
How do you mean?
530
00:33:56,369 --> 00:34:00,081
Mr Hill, what I'm about to tell you
cannot leave this room.
531
00:34:02,049 --> 00:34:06,529
I'm not in the habit of agreeing to
things before I know what they are.
532
00:34:06,690 --> 00:34:09,409
We are re-investigating
the two offences.
533
00:34:12,289 --> 00:34:14,768
Right, and how would
a documentary about the murders
534
00:34:14,769 --> 00:34:16,209
interfere with that?
535
00:34:16,210 --> 00:34:19,609
The killer, or killers,
think they've got away with murder.
536
00:34:19,610 --> 00:34:21,968
A news piece would rattle them,
make them vigilant.
537
00:34:21,969 --> 00:34:25,873
And that would be weeks of
covert police work down the toilet.
538
00:34:26,369 --> 00:34:27,690
So...
539
00:34:27,730 --> 00:34:29,409
I'll tell you what.
540
00:34:29,449 --> 00:34:31,649
If you agree to shelve
your proposed documentary,
541
00:34:31,650 --> 00:34:33,929
maintain a news blackout,
542
00:34:33,969 --> 00:34:36,170
when we're ready to go public,
543
00:34:36,210 --> 00:34:39,077
I will see to it that
you get the exclusive.
544
00:34:43,329 --> 00:34:44,530
OK.
545
00:34:45,650 --> 00:34:46,930
OK, it's a deal.
546
00:34:49,849 --> 00:34:51,488
I want Dyfed Powys Police
547
00:34:51,489 --> 00:34:55,090
and the media to stop fighting
and start collaborating.
548
00:34:55,130 --> 00:34:56,610
But...
549
00:34:56,650 --> 00:34:58,769
if you fuck me on this,
550
00:34:58,809 --> 00:35:03,010
I will see to it that every officer
from CID to peach-fuzz PC
551
00:35:03,050 --> 00:35:06,314
knows that Jonathan Hill
is not a man to be trusted.
552
00:35:13,329 --> 00:35:14,530
Boss...
553
00:35:17,849 --> 00:35:19,650
What the fuck are those?
554
00:35:19,690 --> 00:35:21,448
Professional portrait photos.
555
00:35:21,449 --> 00:35:23,570
They had them done in 1978
556
00:35:23,610 --> 00:35:26,682
after he won all that money
on the Spot The Ball.
557
00:35:29,010 --> 00:35:30,368
Those teeth don't look real.
558
00:35:30,369 --> 00:35:33,209
They're the only two photographs
Huntsman found in the whole house.
559
00:35:33,210 --> 00:35:35,408
I've done a lot of evidence recovery
in my time.
560
00:35:35,409 --> 00:35:37,009
Two photos in a family home?
561
00:35:37,010 --> 00:35:38,849
- It's not right.
- Mm.
562
00:35:38,889 --> 00:35:42,537
- Together, but apart.
- And their son nowhere to be seen.

SEWING MACHINE WHIRS

You've been the model prisoner,
Mr Cooper.
565
00:36:02,570 --> 00:36:04,768
How confident are you
that you can maintain
566
00:36:04,769 --> 00:36:08,250
this change for the better
in the outside world?
567
00:36:08,289 --> 00:36:10,050
100%, your honour.
568
00:36:10,090 --> 00:36:13,730
One of the offences
involved violence towards a woman.
569
00:36:13,769 --> 00:36:15,889
What can you say to reassure us
570
00:36:15,929 --> 00:36:19,249
that you no longer pose a threat to
the female members of the community?
571
00:36:19,250 --> 00:36:21,383
I'm not the same man that I was.
572
00:36:21,409 --> 00:36:23,876
The love and the loyalty
of my wife...
573
00:36:25,449 --> 00:36:27,250
...has helped me with that.
574
00:36:27,289 --> 00:36:29,689
Your wife has been
a regular visitor.
575
00:36:30,730 --> 00:36:34,010
But your son, Adrian,
hasn't visited you once.
576
00:36:35,969 --> 00:36:38,609
I haven't been the best father,
I'll admit that.
577
00:36:38,610 --> 00:36:42,258
Although, I do plan to
make it up to him, if he'll let me.
578
00:36:42,409 --> 00:36:44,809
I'm 62,
Adrian is nearly 40,
579
00:36:44,849 --> 00:36:46,010
so...
580
00:36:47,610 --> 00:36:51,066
Craig says that a man
is never too old to want his dad.
581
00:36:53,449 --> 00:36:55,449
AGJ/28.
582
00:36:55,489 --> 00:36:57,889
"AGJ/28"...
583
00:36:59,650 --> 00:37:02,369
- That's rejected.
- Negative for DNA.
584
00:37:02,409 --> 00:37:04,329
AGJ/39.
585
00:37:04,369 --> 00:37:06,010
"AGJ/39"...
586
00:37:08,530 --> 00:37:10,808
- That's rejected, too.
- Negative for DNA.
587
00:37:10,809 --> 00:37:14,209
Is it just me, or is this beginning
to look a bit bloody hopeless?
588
00:37:14,210 --> 00:37:15,849
DC Rowe...
589
00:37:15,889 --> 00:37:17,649
if we can't keep the faith,
590
00:37:17,650 --> 00:37:20,729
we have no right representing
the victims or their families.
591
00:37:20,730 --> 00:37:22,010
Sorry, boss.
592
00:37:22,050 --> 00:37:23,488
- Momentary lapse.
- All right.
593
00:37:23,489 --> 00:37:25,369
Yeah, thanks.
594
00:37:26,690 --> 00:37:28,849
- Boss...
- Yeah?
595
00:37:28,889 --> 00:37:31,010
Cooper's been granted parole.
596
00:37:31,050 --> 00:37:32,969
That was Dyffryn Prison.
597
00:37:33,010 --> 00:37:36,722
They've no idea who they're dealing
with. He's played them.
598
00:37:42,344 --> 00:37:47,905
John Cooper is the prime suspect
in a major crime review.
599
00:37:49,505 --> 00:37:53,704
I am requesting his release
on parole be revoked.
600
00:37:56,144 --> 00:37:58,344
Well, what's the crime?
601
00:37:58,385 --> 00:38:00,784
I can't share that information.
602
00:38:00,824 --> 00:38:04,064
Well, clearly, you don't have
a case, or you'd be charging him.
603
00:38:04,065 --> 00:38:08,465
Cooper is a dangerous man.
That is a matter of public record.
604
00:38:08,505 --> 00:38:10,385
People change.
605
00:38:10,425 --> 00:38:12,064
That's a matter of rehabilitation.
606
00:38:12,065 --> 00:38:16,264
I'm sure your client can be
very agreeable when it suits him.
607
00:38:16,304 --> 00:38:19,584
Your timing is not convenient,
Superintendent Wilkins.
608
00:38:19,585 --> 00:38:23,489
Can you at least give us a date
when you expect to charge him?
609
00:38:24,425 --> 00:38:25,584
Not at present.
610
00:38:25,585 --> 00:38:29,425
But in the meantime,
John's rights can just go hang?
611
00:38:29,465 --> 00:38:31,865
The safety of the public
comes first.
612
00:38:32,744 --> 00:38:34,677
I think we all agree on that.

00:38:56,985 --> 00:38:58,744
HE SHOUTS
614
00:38:58,784 --> 00:39:01,317
Although we've got
a stay of execution,
615
00:39:01,344 --> 00:39:04,928
he's guaranteed another
parole hearing within 3-6 months.
616
00:39:04,945 --> 00:39:07,624
If, by then, Dr Gallop and her team
still haven't found
617
00:39:07,625 --> 00:39:10,824
our golden nugget,
he'll be released.
618
00:39:10,864 --> 00:39:13,024
But we're not gonna let that happen.
619
00:39:13,025 --> 00:39:15,664
It's time to send Cooper a message.

Good evening.
622
00:39:20,664 --> 00:39:23,384
Organisers say we're on the eve
of the biggest industrial dispute
623
00:39:23,385 --> 00:39:26,105
since the national strike of 1926.
624
00:39:26,144 --> 00:39:27,584
So, what's it all about,
625
00:39:27,585 --> 00:39:30,385
and how will it affect you
and your family?
626
00:39:35,585 --> 00:39:37,184
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
627
00:39:44,585 --> 00:39:46,223
We think one man
did all four murders
628
00:39:46,224 --> 00:39:48,784
and we need your help to catch him.
629
00:39:48,824 --> 00:39:50,424
I want to make a personal televised
630
00:39:50,425 --> 00:39:52,904
appeal for information
on the evening news.
631
00:39:52,905 --> 00:39:54,703
Do you think you'll get
anything useful?
632
00:39:54,704 --> 00:39:56,824
It's a smokescreen.
633
00:39:56,864 --> 00:39:58,544
We're going to interview
the suspect.
634
00:39:58,545 --> 00:40:01,863
I want to use the appeal
to send a message to him in advance.
635
00:40:01,864 --> 00:40:04,624
Plant something in his brain,
make him good and paranoid.
636
00:40:04,625 --> 00:40:06,863
We're reinvestigating the cases
and we...
637
00:40:06,864 --> 00:40:09,872
are confident we'll catch
the culprit using DNA.
638
00:40:10,744 --> 00:40:12,143
Have you found something?
639
00:40:12,144 --> 00:40:13,704
No.
640
00:40:13,744 --> 00:40:15,384
But he doesn't know that.
641
00:40:15,385 --> 00:40:17,904
And who better than the killer
to help us refine our search?
642
00:40:17,905 --> 00:40:20,344
Handled right, liars have a way of
643
00:40:20,385 --> 00:40:22,918
telling you more
than is good for them.
644
00:40:24,025 --> 00:40:26,223
OK, I'm on board,
but just one thing,
645
00:40:26,224 --> 00:40:28,544
how can you be sure he'll be
watching when you need him to?
646
00:40:28,545 --> 00:40:30,784
He's a creature of habit.
647
00:40:30,824 --> 00:40:35,025

that he never misses Wales Tonight.

Are you gonna mention the kids?
Nolton Hill?

00:40:56,824 --> 00:40:58,304
Definitely not.
653
00:40:59,545 --> 00:41:01,984
Why upset them
when we don't even know if the CPS
654
00:41:01,985 --> 00:41:04,785
will include the offence
on the indictment?
655
00:41:10,065 --> 00:41:13,713
There is someone who we should
give a heads-up to, though.

He's got his father's eyes.

00:43:04,824 --> 00:43:06,223
Yeah, I clocked that.
687
00:43:06,224 --> 00:43:08,544
Why do you think
he only changed his first name?
688
00:43:08,545 --> 00:43:10,743
If you wanna lie low,
you change your surname.
689
00:43:10,744 --> 00:43:12,743
Maybe it wasn't about lying low.
690
00:43:12,744 --> 00:43:16,712
He changed his name in 1998,
the same year Cooper was put away.
691
00:43:16,744 --> 00:43:18,703
Maybe it was about starting again.
692

A new name, a new life.
693
00:43:20,505 --> 00:43:22,863
Doesn't look like
that's working out too well for him.

00:44:15,945 --> 00:44:17,105
Yeah.
699
00:44:18,105 --> 00:44:21,113
In front of a few hundred thousand
people, live.
700
00:44:25,824 --> 00:44:28,105
You know, in my first year at uni,
701
00:44:28,144 --> 00:44:31,064
me and some of my mates
went camping near here.
702
00:44:31,065 --> 00:44:34,073
It was July 1989.
It was just after the murders.
703
00:44:35,625 --> 00:44:38,184
We saw all the police activity.
704
00:44:38,224 --> 00:44:39,744
The wanted posters.
705
00:44:40,945 --> 00:44:42,065
It was scary.
706
00:44:43,905 --> 00:44:45,505
Fascinating as well.
707
00:44:47,065 --> 00:44:50,201
It's what made me want to become
a crime reporter.
708
00:44:52,545 --> 00:44:53,824
Good to go?
709
00:44:54,945 --> 00:44:56,625
- Let's do it.
- Yeah.

WALES TONIGHT THEME MUSIC
711
00:45:16,985 --> 00:45:18,944
Good evening.
We are live in Pembrokeshire,
712
00:45:18,945 --> 00:45:21,143
where there have been
dramatic developments
713
00:45:21,144 --> 00:45:23,584
in two of Wales's
most baffling crimes -
714
00:45:23,585 --> 00:45:26,064
the murders of Richard
and Helen Thomas,
715
00:45:26,065 --> 00:45:27,743
and Peter and Gwenda Dixon.
716
00:45:27,744 --> 00:45:29,545
And now, decades on,
717
00:45:29,585 --> 00:45:32,263
these two double murders
are being reinvestigated.
718
00:45:32,264 --> 00:45:34,303
Detective Superintendent
Steve Wilkins
719
00:45:34,304 --> 00:45:37,585
is the man leading
this reinvestigation.
720
00:45:37,625 --> 00:45:40,783
Developments in DNA analysis have
revolutionised cold case reviews.
721
00:45:40,784 --> 00:45:43,223
As a team, we have brought
these processes to bear
722
00:45:43,224 --> 00:45:44,703
on these two investigations
723
00:45:44,704 --> 00:45:47,344
and they have had
a significant impact.
724
00:45:47,385 --> 00:45:50,743
We believe that somebody watching
this programme tonight
725
00:45:50,744 --> 00:45:53,384
may know who is responsible
for these terrible crimes.
726
00:45:53,385 --> 00:45:54,783
And I'm appealing to them,
727
00:45:54,784 --> 00:45:56,984
for the sake of the victims
and their families,
728
00:45:56,985 --> 00:45:58,544
to please come forward.
729
00:45:58,545 --> 00:46:00,743
And do you think
it's the same local man
730
00:46:00,744 --> 00:46:02,464
responsible for all four murders?
731
00:46:02,465 --> 00:46:04,104
I do believe that, Jonathan.
732
00:46:04,105 --> 00:46:06,944
Thanks to the advances
in DNA forensic science,
733
00:46:06,945 --> 00:46:08,504
we are now
in a much stronger position
734
00:46:08,505 --> 00:46:10,638
to catch the person responsible.
