Description

Report on the tenth anniversary of the murder of Sandra Rivett, the Lucan family nanny. Richard John Bingham, 7th Earl of Lucan is still wanted for the killing of the 29 year-old. Veronica, Lady Lucan was also beaten and nearly strangled to death but managed to run away. Peter Badham(?) was in the Plumber’s Arms, the pub to which Lady Lucan fled after her escape. One of the Earl’s friends (and also LBC reporter), David Spanier, explains the Earl’s disintegration was linked to his gambling. In the last ten years the Earl has been allegedly sighted all over the world, but David Spanier among others believes that he killed himself. Female reporter not identified.
