I really like these compilation videos because, without wishing to sound macabre, the murder reconstructions are invariably the most intriguing cases to be featured. CW fans pretty universally find Aladdin’s Cave tedious, but a lot of the armed robbery reconstructions are samey too - you’ve seen one security van hold up, you’ve seen them all. Ditto photocall - a lot of those are grainy CCTV of a bloke with a gun in a plastic bag robbing an Abbey National
The bank/Securicor/Supermarket/Warehouse robberies are boring, I always fast forward over them. The ones featuring a person's real life is much more interesting. Also, love watching the background to see the 80s, houses, shops etc.

Heartbreaking how sick the human race has become, generations after generations of murders,paedophiles, hatred, racism, anger etc etc etc etc, so much evil negative energy. Our world has become such a sick place and desperately needs love, compassion and light to heal.
I think suicide. In my experience backpackers are often unsettled and unhappy, especially lone backpackers. They go backpacking because they are trying to escape those feelings. They think maybe the grass is greener in another location. When they find out it's not, they fall into despair.
Beverley Trendall case is an odd one and a real mystery, hopefully one day justice will prevail. It must have been awful for those left behind, especially her mother. The unsolved cases are the most depressing !!!!
I'd imagine there's no great mystery to Beverley being killed. Definitely by someone she knew and highly likely the new boyfriend she spoke about. As for not missing her, that played exactly into the killers hands. I guess she was much more a loner, than portrayed and it wasn't unusual for her to not be seen for a week or two. Her job was agency based and agency workers back then, changed regularly from week to week, with no notice needed, you just didn't bother turning up. Of course back then we didn't have the tech to keep in touch and Beverly may not have even had a home phone and I highly suspect, that apart from her mum and neighbours, nobody knew exactly where she lived, even her Spanish teacher. Even I don't see my next door neighbours for a month at a time, with working etc and I live in a block of flats, in a City.
"....about a month after her death" ???? Goodness gracious me, didn't anybody miss Beverley at all, a month is a LONG time. It says she'd got a cleaning job, didn't anyone miss her there ? Didn't her family wonder where she was ? All very odd, mysterious and sad. I wonder if those pub friends came forward or the man seen in the flat ? The guy in the flat waved at the neighbour, so it seems he wasn't trying to hide himself away from anybody. I wonder if her diary was found, that would have been an eye opener. That old film footage of Spain was amazing. I notice there are quite a few amateur home vids shown on Crimewatch, quite historical now and a fleeting glance to a life long gone sadly. One for Sherlock or Miss Marple I feel - is it still an ongoing Cold Case I wonder ? The detective on CW was very nice about the victim and seemed very concerned and determinded to solve the case. May she RIP !!!
Shocking to realise that so many murders went unsolved before the advances in forensic science made it so much harder for people to escape justice. The world owes a huge debt of gratitude to Sir Alec Jeffreys regarding DNA fingerprinting.
Maybe a bit weird, but I do hope in the afterlife, whatever that may be, us Crimewatch fanatics, get to meet all these victims and finally we get to the bottom of what happened.

Re: Mark Yendell murder. Can't help wondering if the two men on the cardiff to BPway train who had watched the other steward killed the wrong man by killing Mark. "They looked similar" the crimewatch recon. says. But it then suggested they left the train because they realised it wasnt him which in fact seems to contradict the reconstruction script where they said " thats him with the moustache " Very sad its still unsolved.
I think if I murdered some one I would hand my self in I couldn't live in fear of the old bill kicking my door 1day life time of anxiety I hope that do suffer
The old man in the sweet shop murder could have left DNA, if the woman had kept the glass of water she gave him. Even if it wasn't in full use then, fingerprints would have been on it., and nobody asked that bloke for ID. He just walked straight into folks' homes.
They caught him through the CW reconstruction. Clive Richards. He ran his family candy business in to debt. I suspect he had also had diabetes because The first thing he asked for after his arrest was a glass of water.
He was caught as a result of the CW reconstruction. He was the son of a couple who ran a confectionery business in Port Talbot...squandered his inheritance on drugs.

When I was a kid we went out with all our friends....in the summer all day long and in the winter after school until dinner time.

For BETTER OR WORSE.. and believe it or not? That's how it was... Out playing when ever we could with no adults around. Our classrooms were also shut for one hour at lunchtime starting in 3rd grade. Some kids went home for lunch and some just hung around in the school building and teachers were NO WHERE TO BE FOUND! AND..when I was in 3rd grade (7-8 years old) a policeman came into our classroom from the local precinct house and actually educated us about "grooming". He was very tricky about it only speaking "TO OUR TEACHER"...But in a voice we all could hear... and believe me...when a guy in a uniform came into our 3rd grade classroom...all us kids listened very closely! This was unusual and different and our ears perked right up!

If anything it was even worse. If you think about it, victims can reach many people in seconds using a smart phone. Back then shit heads could get away and dissapear much easier. Less CCTV also.
Jefferies absolutely. Way more horrible murders back then. Now it’s more youth crime, teen on teen standings which obviously isn’t ideal. However all those pedo / serial killers find it much harder to get away with things now and that almost acts as a deterrent
There was no innocence about that era at all. The UK had the highest violent crime rate in Europe at the time. It was a grey, nasty era - the time of football hooliganism, mass unemployment, AIDS , communities being torn to bits, and some very nasty social attitudes. If you want a pop song that sums up much of the 80s, listen to "Ghost Town" by the Specials.

It's always been full of such people. It didn't suddenly happen.
It’s always been the case for as long as humans have existed.
