DESCRIPTION:
PLEASE LISTEN TO ‘SEASON 6 - EPISODE 15’ FOR PART ONE OF THIS TWO-PART CASE. William and Patricia Wycherley had not been seen for a decade and a half. Family, friends, doctors and financial institutions all assumed they were alive, enjoying a new zest for life during their later years, taking in the fresh air and sightseeing at seaside towns across the country. But the couple, who rarely socialised with anyone else, were not living the life of Riley. Far from it… (Part 2 of 2).
