For some, this is true in real life too and so it was for Mike Newitt. Facing financial ruin, the married father re-invented his life to be a secret agent of the Govt so convincingly that even his work colleagues and his wife believed him. But it didn't end well for Mike.

There have been many miners killed across the UK, in a series of terrible accidents in an industry that has always been known as dangerous. But when we think of coal mining disasters they tend to be in the 18th and 19th centuries, including the worst mining disaster in UK history which killed 439 men and boys working in Senghenydd, Glamorgan in 1913 as a result of a gas explosion.
The story today is from the 21st century, but is again from South Wales and once again, it destroyed many lives.

It was a couple walking their dog who found the human remains in a beautiful part of Dartmoor. This grisly find led to a tricky investigation for police to find out who the person was and just what had happened to them. The answer to this investigation lay not in forensics or other technology, but good old-fashioned police work.
