Crimes That Shook Britain
The Moors Murders
Season 6 Episode 5 of 6
Myra Hindley and Ian Brady were convicted of murdering five youngsters between 1963 and 1965. Their acts unravelled with the discovery of their last victim, 17-year-old Edward Evans. They eventually confessed to the murders and led police to all the bodies, other than that of Keith Bennett. This documentary uses dramatised reconstructions and features interviews with relatives of the victims to establish the chronology of the crimes and explain why it took so long for the pair to be brought to justice. Presented by Dermot Murnaghan
