Why Do People Kill at Christmas?

Why do people kill in the season of goodwill? Why are we fascinated when they do? And what does it say about us?

David's latest book is "Murder at Home: how our safest space is where we're most in danger".

Edited by Tom Delargy, Produced by Freddy Chick, Senior Producer is Charlotte Long
