In 1941 Reg and Ethel Christie move into a dilapidated house in Notting Hill, 10, Rillington Place. Ethel is puzzled that Christie, a special constable, spends so many nights away from home but believes he is above being bribed for special perks. However she is irate to find him in pubs with other women but forgives him and refuses to leave him despite his domestic violence towards her. She still has her suspicions about his nocturnal activities, particularly when a female acquaintance goes missing. Seven years later the Christies welcome a young couple, Beryl and Timothy Evans as their lodgers at Rillington Place. Written by don @ minifie-1

Christie is a key prosecution witness at Evans' trial, where he gets Beryl on side and, despite sharp cross examination by Evans' barrister Malcolm Norris, the hapless youngster is found guilty and executed. For all the promise of a new house Christie returns to Rillington Place with Beryl, taking a new tenant in Beresford Brown. However Ethel's realization of the truth does her no good, requiring more lies from Christie. More murders follow before a suspicious Beresford makes a disturbing discovery, leading to police intervention and, despite his pleas of insanity, the justice which Christie had escaped for almost two decades.
