What a tragic version of events told by his Mrs.

Her spiral into depression, him being a total fruitcake, her not having any contact with the kids since 1982

A truly broken woman

Yes I saw that programme a few nights ago - tragic all round - she believes he jumped off the cross-channel ferry from Newhaven.

Yeah the car was left in Norman Rd just up the hill.

I watched that last night. What a shame for her, she hasn't spoken with their three children for 35 years, one way or another because of Lucan. A lonely life for her. I didn't realise that Lucan had been moments away from murdering her too, only stopped because she ran from the house.

Lucan looks like this now, 10th generation:

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Is he voting tomorrow ?

 

[Is it PotG?]

Can he play LB?

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

Can he play LB?

no, he was more of an attacker

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Does he have any cards to play ?

 

[Cian]

If I had to live in Lucan, I'd consider jumping off a ferry too.

Although I don't think his family lived there since the 1690s.

I'm surprised he got a parking space in that road.

Excellent documentary .

 

[portlock seagull]

I life devoid of any happiness. Sad. Very sad.

I've a 100% true story connected to Lucan.

I once bought a signed (by Lord Lucan - it just said 'Lucan') Midland Bank cheque, made out to Harrods (for about £160) which was written and cashed early in the same year he disappeared.

I kept hold of the cheque for about 4-5 years, then advertised it on eBay when I needed to raise some cash. It sold to a guy in Australia of all places (for about £1,100!), so I posted it to him, fully tracked and recorded delivery with Royal Mail.

It showed as delivered and signed for on the Royal Mail system.... in the Canary Islands!! When I called Royal Fail, they had no idea what had happened - or why. I then tried to contact the buyer in Australia multiple times to sort the mess out, who never replied... I have no idea where he went.

So, in true Lucan style - the f*cking thing disappeared and has never been heard of since!!

True story that, I promise.

**edit - just found a pic of it I saved!**

OK, I'll ask, who is raggy Mick?

I found it a desperately sad tale. No contact with kids for 35 years. A lonely existence into old age, with no family to comfort and support. Still a little scintilla of doubt inside me as to whether he did, in fact, commit suicide. He knew a lot of contacts in parts of colonial Africa. One can only assume that the police had enough time to contact the French authorities, who would have arrested him when he disembarked. There was hardly any time for him to disguise himself and he was a striking looking man.
Detectives were convinced that he had fled abroad and was in hiding. They spent years looking for him.

The car was only discovered in Newhaven three days later.

Thought it was fascinating too.

His kids refuse to accept he murdered Sandra Rivett and there have been loads of claims and denials over the years. I too hadn't appreciated she still had had no contact with her kids for 35 years.

It would be really interesting to hear their stories, but they seem very private.

A Brad Pitt of a man, can empty a JPM fruity on the pier from 100 yards, no betting shop from Bavaria to the Baltic is safe from a random outburst of Simon & Garfunkles "I Am A Rock" while similtaniously tapping you up for a fag
