In August 2010 Mi6 spy Gareth Williams body was found naked in his Pimlico flat. He was locked inside a North Face sports bag placed into his bath. This real-life espionage intrigue exploded onto our television screens as sensational details were provided about Gareth’s life and death. Police could find no DNA or fingerprints anywhere in the vicinity. The front door was locked, from the outside! Who would want to kill this mild-mannered math genius? This presentation delves beneath the sensational media headlines, into Gareth’s mirky world of espionage. We trace Gareth’s life from a young boy with enormous mental capacity to the man who may have known too much! We confront the various possibilities as to his demise and who may be responsible for this grisly death. 45 mins.
