50 Years Missing: What Happened to Renee and Andrew MacRae? | From the Archives

On November 12, 1976, 36-year-old Renee MacRae and her three-year-old son Andrew disappeared in the Scottish Highlands. Renee had been travelling along the A9 near Inverness when both she and her young son vanished without trace. Their car was later found abandoned, but there was no sign of either Renee or Andrew. What followed was one of the most extensive and enduring murder investigations in Scottish criminal history, with detectives facing the daunting task of piecing together what had happened to a mother and her young child.

In this anniversary episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, I revisit the disappearance of Renee and Andrew MacRae, examining the events leading up to that fateful November evening, the investigation that followed and the unanswered questions that have kept the case alive for almost 50 years. To mark the approaching 50th anniversary of their disappearance on November 12, 2026, I'm bringing back my original episode, first released in April 2025. Whether you're hearing Renee and Andrew's story for the first time or returning to it, join me as we remember them and revisit one of Scotland's most enduring mysteries.
