S15E02 | Nicole Duke (Eastbourne, East Sussex, 1975)

S15E02 | Nicole Duke (Eastbourne, East Sussex, 1975)

Nicole Duke was the kind of teenager every parent hopes for - trustworthy, responsible, and well-behaved. She had never caused her parents any trouble, but on Christmas Eve 1975, after a rare request to stay out late, Nicole never came home.


That night, she had attended a disco in Eastbourne, where she was last seen in the company of a boy, with whom she shared a kiss. Hours later, on Christmas Morning, her lifeless body was discovered in a seaside shelter along the promenade.


Nicole had been sexually assaulted and murdered, but a crucial clue, a broken neck chain found at the scene, led investigators to the killer just two days later.


This story is one of the most shocking crimes the town has ever seen, yet it has been criminally underreported.
