On a Winter's Night in 1974, a crime took place that would obsess the nation.
It was an extraordinary news story.
The story of an aristocrat, Lord Lucan, who's said to have killed the family nanny, mistaking her for his wife, then somehow just disappeared.
One of the great mysteries in English criminal history.
We're still looking for Lucan.
It's honestly one of the most powerful stories of my lifetime.
I'm Alex von Tunzelman.
This is the Lucan Obsession.
