Crimewatch UK October 1996 and update

[@rayoflight6505]

That guy in the field reconstruction was way creepy.

[@lesleywild8706]

Why wasn't she aware enough to keep a distance between herself and the man in the field? So many women/girls seem to think nothing will ever happen and don't speed up or get into the middle of the road to ascertain whether they are being targeted.

[@AACE73]

Even more creepy when you hear the description of his skin & his odour! That poor girl. Must have been a really vile experience for her😢

22:55 DS Jacqui Hames: "Kevin Eric Michael Mantel, he is 41! But he does look older" Looks older! 41 he looks more like 81! Where was his daily paper round Land's End to John o' Groats?

[@CARLIN4737]

41? Laughing hes at least in his 60s white receeding hair at 41? 61 if not a few days more....Or one hell or a hard 41 years and wears every tough year...On his face.

[@wildrosesfortheexit]

The ages are always so out! Did everyone just look really old in the 80/90’s? They had a guy that looked about 40 and they said he was late teens 😂😂

Jackie Gallagher rip

[@acotbc]

DCI Jeanette Joyce would be back on Crimewatch in two months regarding the murder of another Glaswegian, Caroline Glachan, who was also murdered in the summer of 1996 and, like the murder of Jackie Gallagher, is also an unsolved crime.

[@denzel9086]

Yes, and indeed just today three people trial has started for the murder of Caroline has started in Glasgow. Hopefully she gets justice.

RIP Jill Dando

[@SerenDipity64711]

it's strange watching these and seeing how different things were back then..cigarettes openly on sale, the way people were described such as in physical appearance, which wouldn't be allowed now on television. So sad that many offenders aren't ever apprehended - hopefully looking at cold cases now, with the advent of DNA progression, criminals are caught and brought to justice.

[@ChrisTCAP]

Many of the crimes wouldn't feature today as police wouldn't have resources to investigate, i.e., petty thefts and fraud! We'd no doubt see instead wanted criminals who've misgendered others or who've told too many thruthbombs via Facebook, etc!

Why is the man blurred at 17:54 and 18:09 ?

[@user-zr3pj5tk7k]

Yes, and why cast a "tramp" is a nicely ironed and clean shirt? Was he really wandering around in boxer shorts?

[@scratchydemus]

I know. Was so scary.

[@CARLIN4737]

Strange because hes not at 18.34?

[@letsdiscussitoversometea8479]

I *LOVE* that bit at 18:09 when she says "Hello! ☺️" to the *_dog_* and the *_man_* just - pops up! 🤣 That's how *I* talk to dogs! 😃 But more specifically, cats. 😐 I usually say *"HELLO* therrrre!" "HowWwWw are yoooou?" "Are you alrIIIIght!" Definitely the best bit of the reconstruction.

[@TheWhiff12]

39:11 does she call Jill, Julie?

[@bradnixon6220]

Strange to see if all these offenders were caught they would be out of prison now and probably doing the same shit

[@gd-music5966]

2:21 - isnt that Simon Pegg

[@CARLIN4737]

Thats a bit of a stretch.

[@letsdiscussitoversometea8479]

Tbh that was *EXACTLY* who I thought he looked like. In _fact,_ I thought it actually WAS him (before he became famous). Definitely not a stretch when one legitimately believes that it actually IS that person - even for a split second.

[@bensimmons9912]

Anthony De Boise the sex attacker on Riddlesdown Common.

[@dshe8637]

Interesting. He was a professional man with a well paid career and a family. Absolutely despicable man

[@AACE73]

Blamed it on coming off his meds for diabetes!

[@wrghty]

​@AACE73 gross excuse. He knew what he was doing

[@norfolkronin6307]

Ridiculous that women have to risk their safety and lives. And not monitored as such in the sex industry. Too many risks and it could end up being anyone's daughter. Monsters out there. RIP Jacqueline. Bless you and your family.

[@DebraOdonnell-zb3vx]

Jill Dando was murdered wasn't she

[@CEO786]

Sadly she was,I don’t believe they ever found her actual killer. A man had been sentenced for her murder but he was a vulnerable person.

@lukewilly plus they would put a lot of British people on they were looking for that hadn't done anything that bad compared to other people. Almost like we are looking for jim he is wanted after he didn't pay his tv licence

[@CARLIN4737]

Still do. Many people in the reconstructions were actual witnesses on the day of the crime not actors, Some were the victims themselves?
