Er sagt, er hat nie Gerüchte gehört. Der Headmaster damals, Brian Fletcher, der Sally Ann Bowen sagte, Gareth war einer der Männer, die sie über die Beziehung konfrontiert und dann ihr Kontrakt beendet hat. Er war ein gut respektierter und geliebter Führer der Schule, sagt er.

I mean, that is a pretty robust response to what we have said.

It's, you know, on the face of it, it feels... The letter has shaken me a bit. Could Gareth and the women in his family have got this all wrong somehow? So I go back to the only physical piece of evidence from the time. That note the family GP took after speaking with Gareth's mum, in which it's clear she spoke to the school about the affair with his teacher.

I don't think it says specifically Des Tinch. Her memory is of Des Tinch. I'm pretty sure Gareth's gonna have a really strong reaction to Mr. Tinch's letter, but I brace myself and I send him a copy. A couple of days later, he comes into the studio armed with several A4 pages of notes. He spends hours clinically dissecting what he takes issue with, line by line, until eventually he needs a break.

Ja, du hast versucht, mich zu telefonieren, hast du nicht? Ja, ich habe. Vielen Dank, dass du mich zurückgebracht hast. Es gibt ein Geheimnis bei Investitionen, das die meisten Leute nicht aufhören, weil es nicht sehr glamourös ist. Right. I'm telling you this because I think it was typical of Miss Bowen. This is someone who was on the staff when this whole story with Miss Bowen was playing out.

He's an interesting person, but I can tell you almost nothing about him because he's been very clear. He doesn't want to be recorded and he definitely does not want to be identified. I'm calling him George and these are my recollections of our conversation based on notes I took at the time. So not word for word, but pretty close. And he's given me permission to have them read by an actor.

One guy told me that during class one day, Miss Bowen took out these Indian-style paintings in which a couple was posing in different sexual positions. It was the Karma Sutra. He assumed she was giving them some kind of sex education lesson. And, he says, she seemed to really enjoy how shocked the boys were. But this is the first time I'm hearing that she behaved that way with members of staff.
