		As one victim discovers when she takes a dose of his 'special compound' meant to cure her bronchitis, the device is merely to mask the smell of the household gas he uses to put them under, to weaken them, before he can molest and strangle them to death.
		Christie goes too far with the attack on Beryl and murders her, leaving tell tale bruises which he has a good job explaining his way out of.

		John Christie (who last time I was there was still a star exhibit at Madame Tussaud's waxworks museum in London) was the mega-ordinary, almost mousy south east Londoner who besides liking a good cuppa tea...killed people in his dingy little residence.
		Chillingly portrayed by the great actor Richard Attenborough, Christie was a little mouse of a man who first lured his victims home on some pretext or other, usually by saying that he could perform some desired medical procedure on them, for example, an abortion, which was illegal at the time.

		Christie seems normal enough as he goes about his life and talks frequently about his war service and his supposed medical training.
		Christie took advantage of this by convincing him that Beryl had died as part of a medical procedure and that it would be foolish to call the police as they would only blame Timothy as it was well known that him and Beryl had frequent arguments.
		Perhaps the strongest scene in the whole of the film is when Christie manipulates Thomas into leaving his wife's body and his child in Christie's care as he flees to the safety of the Welsh countryside.
