on tuesday, the court of appeal will examine whether to overturn the conviction of a man who is injailr sentence for murder. it's a case that goes back to the violent killing in 2006 of an elderly man in a leafy, prosperous part of north london. it was unique in that some of the subsequent trial was held in secret. did that contribute to a potential miscarriage of justice? well, all such cases of course invite the question — did the man convicted of the crime do it or not? but this one is complicated by an association between the chinese man who was found guilty and mi6. it means reporting restrictions apply in this case. but the journalist and writer thomas harding, who lived in the neighbourhood of the murder, has been intrigued by what happened. he's written a book on it and interviewed the convicted man, wang yam. he's authored this film for us on the case, and there are some potentially upsetting images in it. alan chappelow was bludgeoned to death in his home in 2006. the man convicted of his killing, a chinese dissident who was somehow connected to the secret intelligence servic
