So, we have the perfect crime. The finance scandal of London in 1967, a faked death, a trusted accomplice leading police astray, a beauty queen, all culminating in a successful getaway.
They'd done it, Disappeared, never to be seen again.
Or so they thought......
In our concluding episode, we try to track them down.

Sunday, 16th July 1967 was destined to be the warmest day of the year in the South of England. But in the English Channel, there was a fog.
A small dinghy pushed off the coast near Selsey on the Sussex coast, and set in motion a mystery that until this moment has never been solved.
Involving missing cash, Miss World contestants and suspicious deaths, it was the scandal of the summer that has remained unsolved ever since.....
Until Now.
