About this deal

Kidnapping was almost unknown in England. I think at first the police thought it was some kind of prank being played by Lesley or her college friends (Lesley was a student at Wulfrun College in Wolverhampton), but they pretty soon did realise it was serious and turned all kinds of resources onto it."

Me and photographer Dave Bagnall drove through the snow and eventually got to Mansfield where some comedian had turned all the direction signs round so we couldn't find our way. The movie was shot in just five weeks, and when crews went to Bathpool Park in Kidsgrove, to film the manhole where 17-year-old heiress Lesley was murdered, they deliberately chose a rainy day when no-one would be about. I got a phone call from our news editor, Warren Wilson, saying we had had a tip-off that somebody who was linked with the Lesley Whittle kidnap and the post office murders had been apprehended at a place called, I think, Mansfield Woodhouse, and he asked us to go there. Culture & Lifestyle 'Marvel Studios The Marvel Cinematic Universe: An Official Timeline' Coming September 2023 A press conference was called in which Detective Chief Superintendent Bob Booth said he was still hoping that the kidnapper might get in touch. There was a 1am deadline at a rendezvous which he was not going to reveal. Unfortunately Bill Williams got the location of the rendezvous which was a telephone kiosk at the Swan Centre in Kidderminster and pushed out the location to the evening press, which was used, much to the annoyance of Bob Booth.

Neilson began his murder spree with a string of violent post office robberies, but in 1975 he touched the nation's nerve when he kidnapped Lesley from her bed in Highley, near Bridgnorth, and demanded money from her wealthy family. It had been until quite recently a mining community and was quite tight-knit. There was a deal of suspicion surrounding everyone really."

It's macabre so soon. I haven't heard a word about it from them. I'm surprised they didn't get in touch with me." Other leading figures in the community were also unhappy. Dudley West MP Colin Phipps accused the film-makers of exploiting tragedies. Namor: [looks around] This place is amazing. The air is pristine, and the water... My mother told me stories about a place like this, a protected land with people who never have to leave, who never have to change who they were. What reason do you have to reveal your secret to the world? I filed my story first thing in the morning when the copytakers came in and Dave got pictures of the two coppers. We had got ourselves an exclusive." For Andy this was the most momentous moment of the whole affair as it was to land him and the Shropshire Star an international scoop. The investigation was led by Chief Superintendent Bob Booth, who hitherto had an excellent record in solving murders, but whose career was to be broken by the failures of the Lesley Whittle case.Starring: Letitia Wright , Lupita Nyong'o , Danai Gurira , Winston Duke , Angela Bassett , Tenoch Huerta

Before police could find her, Lesley died suspended from a wire in the sewers which Neilson had turned into a lair. Tony said three police forces were involved in the investigation and did not seem to be co-operating particularly, and a commander from Scotland Yard was brought in to co-ordinate the inquiry.

He and his colleagues had never handled anything like that before. The major error that they made was that they didn't take the Press into their confidence.

After the discovery of Lesley's body, her killer was to remain at large for many months. It was not until December 11, 1975, that Neilson was caught – essentially by chance – by two police constables near Mansfield. But the Home Secretary was told he had no powers to stop the film, and the British Board of Film Classification granted it an X-certificate.As for the police handling of the affair, Tony said: "They got off to an unfortunate start. I felt a bit sorry for Bob Booth at the end of the day. He had solved 70 murders and was a very accomplished detective. Not only must it be very painful to the relatives of the people involved, but it displays the kind of ghoulish preoccupation with murder and serious crime which is becoming all too common in the media," he said.
