This week's blurb comes from a book based on a true story. Our story is very loosely based on that blurb. So if you think you already know all about John Darwin and his wife.. and the canoe, you haven't heard our version of events. And once you've heard it, you can't unhear it. Things get dark, but not before they get incredibly bright! The lines between fact and fiction become very blurry indeed in this week's episode based on the book The Thief, His Wife And The Canoe by David Leigh and Tony Hutchinson.
