Fecha de emisión: May 14, 2006

The story begins in 1964. Married teenagers David and Maureen Smith have recently become parents to a baby girl called Angela. When their child dies of cot-death at the age of six months, Maureen turns to her older sister, Myra, for comfort, and David finds friendship in Myra's boyfriend, Ian Brady. David and Maureen know nothing about the secrets harboured by Brady and Hindley. Shortly after the tragedy, Hindley and Brady move with Hindley's grandmother Ellen Maybury, to a new council house; 16 Wardle Brook Avenue, on the Hattersley estate near Hyde. On the evening of 6 October 1965, David Smith witnesses a horrific murder at Brady and Hindley's house; the victim is a 17-year-old boy, Edward Evans. After the murder, David is forced to help clean up the mess and stay at the house until the early hours of the morning. When he returns home and tells Maureen about the crime, she finds his story hard to believe. In the morning, however, the couple go to the police, and Brady is arrested. Brady admits to murdering Edward Evans but insists that David Smith was a willing accomplice.
