Stephen Farrow

Stephen Farrow is a man with a violent hatred of the church and in 2012 sparked a nationwide man-hunt, after brutally murdering Reverend John Suddards, in the sleepy Gloucestershire town of Thornbury. Soon after his arrest it became clear that Farrow had in fact been on the run after committing two murders. Weeks earlier he had beaten pensioner Betty Yates to death in her home with her own walking stick. Join us as we meet those who befriended Farrow and tried to help him settle down and as we examine the theories Farrow himself put forward for his campaign of violence against the church, and the evil plans that he failed to see through.
