Everyman: One Fatal Day

on BBC One London

"It's not raving maniacs who take other people's lives, it's people who are inadequate to the stresses of life and finally crumple in an awful, destructive way."
Eight years ago, Graham would never have thought he was capable of killing anyone. He is still struggling to understand why he did. The popular belief is that a typical murderer is a violent maniac who will kill again if not locked away. In reality, three murderers out of four are husbands, wives, lovers or children who fail to cope with difficult events.
In this programme, two men who have been tried for murder talk about the family pressures which led them to kill.
