In December 1980, John Lennon was returning to public life with new music, fresh interviews and plans for more recording. On 8 December, he signed an album for a man waiting outside his New York home. Hours later, that same man shot him. This episode of Compact Murder traces Lennon's final years and the events of that day, follows the urgent attempt to save his life, and explores the public grief, criminal proceedings and remembrance that followed the loss of a husband, father and musician at forty.
