Their adulterous spouses, Sunday school teacher Hazel Buchanan and dentist Colin Howell, continued their affair secretly but both later remarried other people. A series of disasters in Howell's life made him reveal that he and Hazel Stewart had conspired to murder their spouses nearly two decades earlier. That confession led to two of the most sensational murder trials ever seen in the UK. 2016. Uniform title: Let this be our secret
