A proposito di questo titolo

In 1886, shootings in London were rare - even more so in broad daylight. In this episode, we explore the murder and robbery committed in a quiet Kentish Town road by George Finch, a would-be performer whose stage ambitions had faltered. Finch would avoid execution and go on to live a long life after his release from Broadmoor.
