Lord Lucan and the Belgravia Murder

In November 1974 Sandra Rivett, nanny to the children of Lord Lucan, was bludgeoned to death in the basement of the family home in Lower Belgrave Street, Belgravia. Lady Lucan was also attacked. Lucan vanished that night and was declared legally dead in 1999; his fate remains one of Britain's great mysteries.
