A TV dramatisation of the true life story of the brides in the bath murders.
Between 1910 and 1915 George Joseph Smith married bigamously under assumed names and then murdered his brides in the bath. He had insured his wives and collected large sums upon their deaths. Eventually his luck ran out and Scotland yard pieced together the murders, carried out in different seaside towns.
