  • Death of a Dog Walker: 6. That Could Be Anybody
    Sep 15 2026

    The partner of the accused is rarely called by the prosecution. But today – we hear evidence from David’s wife of more than 57 years. She’s asked about his relationship with the victim, Brian Low.

    And she’s quizzed about the CCTV showing a bike similar to hers being ridden through Aberfeldy. Does she agree that the rider could be her husband?

    Later in the episode we learn how David’s football allegiance could raise questions about the blue bag apparently being carried by the killer. And we hear from some expert witnesses who might be able to pin-point the time of death. Will this new evidence change the whole complexion of the case?

    Inside Murder Trial is hosted by Jane MacSorley, with expert analysis from Tommy Ross KC. The series is a Firecrest Films production for BBC Scotland.

  • Death of a Dog Walker: 5. Two Fingers
    Sep 8 2026

    After yesterday’s revelations from the CCTV cameras, we follow more images which perhaps show someone on their way to commit the murder. But do any of the camera’s provide a clear shot of who that person is?

    We also see footage of David Campbell apparently making gestures towards the police – on his own camera system.

    Later – there is evidence which might explain why David’s wife’s bike has changed its appearance. And clues which could explain where David was hiding a gun. Or – they might present some innocent explanations. As we pass the half-way point, which way are the jury leaning. And which way do you think the trial will go?

  • Death of a Dog Walker: 4. You Don’t Expect To Hear That!
    Sep 1 2026

    It’s an emotional day in court as Brian’s loved ones recall the moment their world was shattered, as they first learned that Brian was dead. And then – that he had been murdered. Later, we hear evidence from a police officer who gathered CCTV in the case. And we build a picture of what COULD be the killer on his way to commit the murder…only there’s no images which show his face. Then, on another camera, we witness some bizarre behaviour from the accused. Could his own home camera system provide evidence that weakens his defence? Inside Murder Trial is hosted by Jane MacSorley, with expert analysis from Tommy Ross KC. The series is a Firecrest Films production for BBC Scotland.

  • Death of a Dog Walker: 3. A Body On The Lane
    Aug 25 2026

    The discovery of a body is always a dramatic moment in court. This episode hears from the first on the scene – from neighbours, to paramedics, and police, as Brian Low is found deceased, with his labrador Millie loyally by his side.

    We’ll hear how Brian’s death was initially thought not to be suspicious – perhaps stemming from a medical episode rather than foul play. And we’ll hear evidence around how long he may have been in the lane before he was found.

    As the day continues – more attention is placed on the police response – and the eventual discovery that Brian had suffered gunshot wounds.

    Inside Murder Trial is hosted by Jane MacSorley, with expert analysis from Tommy Ross KC. The series is a Firecrest Films production for BBC Scotland.
