Episode 41 - How Not to Fake Your Death: John Darwin - Canoe Man

Dying is easy, coming back is hard.

In 2002 John Darwin took his red, handmade canoe out to sea and disappeared. He was eventually declared dead, but 5 years later in 2007 he walked into a police station claiming to have no memory of the past half decade. How had John Darwin vanished? And why had he come back?
