By Wednesday, though, it’s Elaine who’s feeling jittery – which isn’t much of a surprise seeing as Stephen has replaced her blood-pressure medication with caffeine pills. And after lacing her tea, Elaine starts to feel increasingly unwell.

Stephen then feigns concern and offers to head out and buy some food. But while alone, a dizzy Elaine stumbles and hits her head. Returning to the flat, Stephen subsequently finds Elaine unconscious on the floor and quietly backs out. But has he killed again?
