Albert Pierrepoint - The Greatest Hangman Documentary

Albert Pierrepoint was Britain's most prolific executioner and chief hangman who carried out 600 executions during his 25-year career from 1932 to 1956. This true crime documentary explores the life of the man behind the death penalty in Britain during its final decades of capital punishment. Pierrepoint followed his father and uncle into the execution profession, perfecting the art of hanging to make death by hanging as swift and humane as possible. His career included executing war criminals after World War 2 at Nuremberg, hanging Ruth Ellis the last woman executed in Britain, and carrying out hundreds of capital punishment sentences across the United Kingdom. Despite his expertise as an executioner, Pierrepoint eventually opposed the death penalty after retiring, stating that executions achieved nothing except revenge. This hangman documentary examines his controversial legacy, the psychology behind his work, and how Britain's chief executioner became an unlikely voice against capital punishment.
