Secret double life of woman stabbed to death one day before running off with lover… and why killer has never been found
THE brutal unsolved murder of a woman living a secret double life remains a mystery 34 years on - with cops now launching a fresh appeal to find her killer. Lynne Trenholm, 29, was discovered by a cleaner with multiple stab wounds in a Chester massage parlour 34 years ago today. 4 Three decades on from her tragic death, her killer has still never been caught. The young woman was leading a secret life as a sex worker at Pinky's Massage Parlour, Chester, while she told her family she was working as a clerk. Lynne, who had previously worked as a nursing home assistant, secretly switched her line of work without her family knowing. This saw her travel from her home in Failsworth to Chester to work as a masseuse at the Parlour. 4 In the aftermath of the brutal killing, Lynne's mother, Joan Rayborn, said: 'She was my daughter and it didn't matter what she did for a living at Pinky's.' She also revealed that her daughter had planned to leave the parlour and run off with her dream man the day after she was murdered. The cleaner's chilling discovery was made on Sunday 9th June 1991, and a murder investigation was launched soon after. However, Lynne's case remains a mystery. Cheshire Constabulary carried out several reviews, and appeals were issued in a bid to solve the murder, but her killer is yet to be caught. It has also been hoped that a bloodied fingerprint found at the scene would lead the police to some answers but a match was never found. 4 In a statement released today, Cheshire police said: 'It is possible there may be some who have never come forward at the time who may hold valuable information, we're appealing for them to make contact.' Detective Inspector Eli Atkinson said: 'Unsolved murders are periodically reviewed, and this is one we are currently looking at. 'We believe it would be timely to ask those who may have information but have not yet come forward to reconsider and get in touch to help us find the person responsible for Lynne's murder.' 4 He added: 'Cases of this nature are never formally closed, they remain open for any new information to come to light that we can identify and explore further, so if you have any information that may help, please get in touch.' Among their theories of the killer's motive, police believe it may have been a robbery as a substantial amount of cash was taken. Anyone with information should contact Cheshire Police via

The Gold fans make desperate plea to BBC bosses as crime drama's second series kicks off
The multi-award-nominated series The Gold returned to BBC One last night, after two years of waiting. The crime drama takes the viewer on an expedition through the 80s- retelling the story of the notorious Brink's-Mat Robbery- one of the largest robberies, and most expensive Met investigations in British history. On 26th December 1983, six criminals broke into the Brink's-Mat warehouse on the Heathrow International trading estate in West London to undertake an dastardly scheme. They successfully heisted £26m in gold bullion, cash and diamonds (equivalent to £111m today) in a plot dubbed the crime of the century. But overshadowing the complexity of the heist was the operation that was set into effect following it - of smelting down and vanishing the gold, across the world, into the assets of a global network of criminals. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The crime drama takes the viewer on an expedition through the 80s- retelling the story of the notorious Brink's-Mat Robbery- one of the largest robberies, and most expensive Met investigations in British history The story was transformed into a captivating comedy-thriller on the small screen with the help of some 'diamonds' of the acting world, starring Hugh Bonneville, Dominic Cooper, Charlotte Spencer, Sean Harris, Jack Lowden and Tom Cullen. One fan describes it as' A beautifully written limited series about a heist - actually post-heist - of likeable smaller-time crooks stumbling onto the biggest gold theft in history: 26 million; and how they try to get rid of it as equally likeable cops chase them.' It achieved great acclaim following its first season, which concluded in March 2023, getting a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Series one ended with luckless Met detective Brian Boyce's (Hugh Bonneville) gut-wrenching realisation that only half of the Gold had been accounted for by the investigation, and there was still a whopping £13 million left to locate. Whilst season 1 followed the movement of the gold that was stolen and distributed by Kenneth Noye, the second season delves into the mystery of the elusive other half of the money. Following last night's riveting episode, fans took to social media, demanding a third series from the BBC. 'Loved this series (hoping for series three). Series two of #TheGold starts tonight. So excited' 'It was brilliant again. I was nervous it wouldn't live up to series one but it was great #TheGold' 'I'm ten minutes in and loving the nostalgia plus it's a cracking drama with first class actors.' 'The writing in #TheGold is so good. Just binge watched the whole thing to reward myself for doing admin!' 'I loved the first series of The Gold and have been looking forward to seeing series 2! However, in conversation with Radio Times, stars of the show Charlotte Spencer and Emun Elliot suggested that the series would be limited to a two-parter, to keep the show focused on the source story: the gold. Spencer said: 'I think people don't realise that, even when I've spoken to friends and family who are like, 'Oh my God, it's got a second season?', and it's like, 'Yeah, because they only ever found half [of the gold]'. So there's, like, a whole other storyline that people don't know about which I think they're gonna like.' Meanwhile, Elliott added: 'The way Neil writes often, because I've worked with him a couple of times, he always seems to know whether something's going to be a standalone thing, a two-parter, a three-parter. 'So he has that kind of entire story arc in his head from episode 1, season 1. And obviously if the first season had been a disaster, there would be no season two, but luckily, there was such a great response, that we got to continue chasing this gold.'
