Barristers Jeremy Dein and Sasha Wass look back at their examination of a tragic case of love, infidelity, and murder - the conviction and execution of Edith Thompson.

Ilford, 1922. Edith Thompson and her lover were convicted of the brutal murder of her husband, Percy. A product of an unhappy marriage, Edith had begun an affair with Freddy Bywaters - a relationship which ended with their joint conviction for murder, and ultimately their executions. However, in 2017 Edith鈥檚 cousin Nicki questioned the safety of Edith鈥檚 conviction. How much did Edith really know about her husband鈥檚 brutal murder at the hands of Freddy? Did her infidelity influence the minds of the 1920s judge and jury?

It was up to Jeremy and Sasha to try to find new evidence to convince a modern day judge that Edith鈥檚 name should be cleared.

Now it鈥檚 nearly a year on from their investigation, and the barristers catch up with Nicki to find out what鈥檚 been happening in her life since the judge delivered his verdict. She brings them the incredible news that one of Edith鈥檚 mother鈥檚 last wishes has finally been fulfilled, nearly one hundred years after her daughter was hanged.
