We're diving into the twisted tale of Neville Heath—a killer who inspired Hitchcock's unfinished film "Kaleidoscope." With a history of fraud, false identities, and a penchant for deception, Heath’s charm masked a sadistic nature that led to the brutal murders of Margery Gardner, a bohemian artist and film extra, and Doreen Marshall, a young woman seeking rest at the seaside. We’ll explore his calculated manipulation and the shocking trial that captivated post-war Britain.
