Six years on, the disappearance of Georgina Gharsallah from Worthing remains a chilling puzzle. In the Footsteps of Killers, airing Tuesday, June 24, at 10:00 PM on Channel 4, sees Emilia Fox and criminologist David Wilson return to the case, joined by Dr. Graham Hill, to re-examine the clues and the circumstances surrounding Georgina’s vanishing in 2018.
The investigation kicks off by reviewing Georgina’s last confirmed sighting, captured on CCTV as she left her mother Andrea’s house. It’s a seemingly small detail, but in cold cases, every piece of footage or timeline entry matters. This is a case that has shifted status; it is now officially being treated as a murder investigation, a grim update that underscores the urgency and the weight of the work.
Georgina’s mother, Andrea, has tirelessly worked to find answers, her public campaigning keeping the case from fading into obscurity. Fox and Wilson, with their combined expertise, will work to piece together the evidence, looking for details that might have been overlooked or misinterpreted. They aim to put the pieces into order and, perhaps, bring some form of conclusion to a family still in the dark.
