The shocking case is now recounted on BBC TV drama The Sixth Commandment. How was the killer caught?

Ben Field appeared to be a charming, religious young man giving sermons in his father's Baptist church.

Field is currently serving a life sentence for the murder of Peter Farquhar at Maids Moreton. He was found not guilty of conspiring to kill Mr. Farquhar's neighbor, Ann Moore-Martin, but admitted defrauding her.
