A headless torso in the River Severn, a missing ex-army captain, and a son found gassed. Our experts revisit 1938's baffling Headless Man case. In Roy Marsden's Incident Room, a 21st century jury of experts re-examines the evidence: psychologist and profiler Kerry Dames, journalist and crime novelist Hilary Bonner, retired senior investigator Mick Turner, and forensic scientist Alan Baker. What was the method? What was the motive? Were clues missed? The timeline opens on January 4, 1938. After sending Nurse Sullivan and his ailing wife Edith to the Gomont to watch Love Is News, Captain William Butte vanished from their Cheltenham home. Weeks later, fishermen near Hawbridge hauled a bloated torso from the River Severn, tied to white bricks with cord; crowds swelled to thousands as more limbs were found, each weighted, the hands and head missing. Meanwhile, on January 24, Nurse Sullivan discovered her son Brian apparently gassed at Tower Lodge.

From Tobruk to El Alamein and Operation Torch, see how Montgomery's 8th Army broke Rommel and ended Axis power in North Africa. June 11, 1940: Italy enters the war, threatening Suez and Britain's lifelines. Outnumbered in men and aircraft, General Wavell faces 250,000 Italian troops with thin forces from Egypt to East Africa. Early raids give way to bold counterblows as Bardia falls and Tobruk is taken, but the arrival of General Erwin Rommel and the Afrika Korps reverses fortunes. The siege of Tobruk grinds on, Halfaya Pass is a bruising contest, and on 21 June 1942 Tobruk falls, which Churchill calls one of the heaviest blows he could recall. Churchill arrives with new leadership: General Alexander and General Montgomery. With fresh Sherman tanks and RAF cover, Monty launches Operation Lightfoot on 23 October 1942, a night-long barrage that shocks the Axis. Fighting through deep minefields and fierce counterattacks, the Allies wear the enemy down. Operation Supercharge on 2 November breaks the line and forces a retreat. The 8th Army pursues fast, regaining Mersa Matruh, recapturing Tobruk on 13 November

Scientists have long searched for the cause of dinosaur extinction, with many believing a catastrophic asteroid impact was responsible. However, some experts argue that this is only part of the story. A research team is exploring the ocean floor near the Yucatán impact crater, hoping to uncover clues that could explain the true cause of the dinosaurs' demise. While the asteroid impact is a significant factor, some scientists suggest that volcanic activity, land shifts, and a drop in global sea levels may have weakened the dinosaurs long before the asteroid struck.
