Chilling new details have emerged from a banned interview with serial killer Dennis Nilsen detailing how he killed his victims 28 years after judges stopped it from airing.
Journalist Mike Morley interviewed Nilsen for four hours at Albany high-security prison on the Isle of Wight in 1993.
But just four minutes of the 'soul-destroying insights into murder, sexual fantasies, necrophilia, dismemberment, boiling and burning of human flesh' were broadcast because of a Home Office intervention.
Nilsen, a former policeman and soldier, was jailed for life in 1983 for murdering at least 12 young men in the 70s and 80s. He died in 2018.

'Nilsen added: 'I pulled him, choking, from the bed, straining until he became unconscious.'
'Unsure if his victim was dead or not, he said he then filled a bucket with water and held the man's head in
