Thanks to Hunkerdown's recommendation, and Cottonweaver posting a link in #14 of this thread, I have just watched the first episode of 'The Widower'. Absolutely spooky similarities in places - the sleeping pills, the self-deception, weeping and victim-blaming, the money getting shifted into the joint account...
I should not be doing this. I suspect Neteditor's book is getting on a lot better than mine.
Oh well, in for a penny, in for a pound - this might interest you Moll.

It's the NZealander wife 2 interviewed after the programme went out. ( 25 mins long)
( As you've seen, her family's persistence helped force Grampian police to re- open the case into Webster's murder of wife 1. Claire. )
Webster was diagnosed as a sociopath. As you''ll have seen in "the widower", sometimes the drugging was just because he could ( habitual way to shut up his partner) , other times it was with clear financial intent.
I appreciate these two perps are different people and so can't be formally compared....indeed some of Webster's exes explained that in his 30s & 40s he was a good looking guy, with a real way with women, the patter and the private school education, likened by one as "a young Sean Connery".......definitely not applicable to GGHW Ian Stewart.
