In 2004, Sydney Blackwell, a retired accountant, and his wife Jacqueline, an antiques dealer, lived in the village of Melling in Merseyside. It's an affluent area with green fields, old churches and quaint cottages.

They shared their home with their 18-year-old son, Brian.

As Sydney sat in his favourite chair, his son attacked him with a claw hammer and then preceded to stab his mother over 15 times.
