Sinister South

South London’s Night Stalker: The horror of Delroy Grant

Season 2 Episode 13

For 17 years, someone was targeting elderly people across South London, slipping into their homes in the dead of night. Behind the mask was Delroy Grant, a man living a quiet life in Lewisham, known to neighbours as a family man and carer. But the reality was far darker.

In this episode, we explore the long investigation to uncover the truth, the mistakes that let him walk free for so long, and the strength of the victims who came forward. This is a story about the people he hurt, the communities affected, and the detectives who finally stopped him.
