British Murders Unsolved | Episode 2: Eve Stratford and Lynne Weedon (Leytonstone, East London and Hounslow, West London, 1975)

British Murders Unsolved | Episode 2: Eve Stratford and Lynne Weedon (Leytonstone, East London and Hounslow, West London, 1975)

Eve Stratford seemed to have it all - a promising modelling career, a rock star boyfriend, and a future full of possibilities. But on a cold March day in 1975, her life was brutally cut short when an unknown attacker took everything from her in her own home.


Just six months later, 16-year-old Lynne Weedon, rushing to beat curfew after a night with friends, took a fateful shortcut through a dark alley. She never made it home. Ambushed, assaulted, and left for dead, her case has remained unsolved for decades.


For nearly 30 years, these two horrific crimes remained unconnected, until a revolutionary DNA discovery in 2004 linked their fates. Their killer is still at large, and the mystery remains, but one undeniable truth binds them together in a way neither could have imagined.


If you have any information about either of these cases, please contact Crimestoppers anonymously by phoning 0800 555 111 or via their website at crimestoppers-uk.org. Alternatively, to speak with someone from the Met Police directly, please call 101.
