The show also looks at the killing of Arthur Thompson Jnr, the son of Glasgow’s 'Godfather', which led to revenge attacks and contract killings and the subsequent trial of gangland figure, Paul Ferris.
Both crimes led to the biggest trials Scotland had ever seen and both became mired in controversy and scandal. John Michie talks to those involved and finds out the real motives behind the crimes, using news footage, dramatic reconstructions and interviews with police and crime experts.
