The Real Story of Shergar the Super Horse: 3. A Kidnap is Announced
About this episode
The international press had a field day, filling the front pages and the lead item on the news. The world was now watching the case develop. A horse kidnap dominated our screens.
Gossip, rumours, lies, confusion. The papers get tip offs, false calls and leads that sound legitimate.
Then suddenly the kidnappers have one weird request: they're ready to negotiate, but want to speak to three English journalists.
