The making of Fairy Meadow - "a story I've become obsessed with"
In 1970, three-year-old Cheryl Grimmer was taken from an Australian beach. More than half a century later, can the mystery be solved?
The 91热爆's Jon Kay has been investigating the story of Cheryl Grimmer for six years. She was just three-years-old when she vanished from the changing rooms at Fairy Meadow beach in Australia in January 1970. The Grimmer family had emigrated from Bristol, where Jon is based. He explains how he has travelled thousands of miles and spent hundreds of hours making a podcast series in search of the truth - a series you can listen to in full on 91热爆 Sounds. He speaks to potential witnesses and the family left behind - and reveals his amazement at the twists and turns his journey takes. For 5 Minutes On, he gives a personal account of how the story has affected him, saying, "anyone who's ever lost sight of a child will know that heart-stopping feeling when you suddenly can鈥檛 see them - even if it鈥檚 only for a few seconds. But what if that feeling goes on forever?"
