George Stagg had fought for the British Empire in Sudan alongside Winston Churchill and Douglas Haig; he'd been seriously injured in the trenches of World War I after walking out on his job and wife to serve his country.
He was an upstanding citizen, a former policeman, so what led him to shoot dead his own neighbour Tommy Ball?
The final episode of The Murder that Changed English Football (allegedly) looks at a man whose life reflected the peak and decline of the British empire; a character whose complexities were never given a chance to show in the one-day murder trial that ended in his death sentence.
The series relies heavily on research by Colin Brown, author of The Armistice Day Killing: The Death of Tommy Ball and the Life of the Man who Shot Him.
