00:00Multiple sightings,

00:02a £10,000 reward for information,

00:04and a massive police hunt.

00:08And still, Constance Martin

00:10and Mark Gordon managed to travel

00:12hundreds of miles from the north of the country

00:14to the south.

00:16This is how they evaded the authorities.

00:18Constance Martin was reported missing on the 5th of January.

00:32That same evening, the car she'd been travelling in

00:34with partner Mark Gordon caught fire on the M61 near Bolton.

00:38Van driver Ken Hudson had been behind them on the motorway.

00:42He pulled over to help them and called the emergency services.

00:45The couple left on foot, heading towards Bolton.

00:50They left behind a placenta,

00:52wrapped in a towel and Martin's passport,

00:54along with a bag of more than 30 mobile phones,

00:57used nappies, a cat in a pet carrier,

01:00and a Bible.

01:01A local resident gave them a lift into Bolton,

01:04where they were seen at the Bolton Interchange bus station,

01:07before deciding to take a taxi 35 miles to Liverpool,

01:10paying £80.

01:12From there, they flagged down another taxi,

01:14which took them 270 miles across the country to Harwich in Essex.

01:19Driver Ali Yaria said the woman was shivering,

01:22and he saw a baby inside the woman's jacket,

01:25wearing only a nappy.

01:27In Harwich, they checked into a Premier Inn using a false name,

01:31Thomas.

01:32Hotel staff said Martin paid in cash,

01:35and seemed, quote, quite distressed.

01:37After being asked to leave in the morning,

01:39because they couldn't provide proof of identity,

01:41they moved to the Friatt Hotel for the night.

01:44They checked out early the next morning.

01:46Martin was seen outside Harwich Port two hours later.

01:49A member of the public confronted the couple,

01:52having seen a news report about their disappearance.

01:55Dale Gosling said that a baby was wrapped inside Martin's coat,

01:59and that he heard crying.

02:01The couple then took a taxi from Harwich to Colchester.

02:04Then, later that morning, another taxi from Colchester to East Ham in East London.

02:10CCTV showed the couple getting out of the cab with their baby girl, Victoria.

02:16Martin cradling the child under her jacket.

02:19Later that day, Gordon bought a buggy in Argos,

02:22before meeting Martin in a kebab shop.

02:25She assembled the buggy and then put the baby in.

02:29They then took a series of taxis around London,

02:32abandoning the buggy and, prosecutors said,

02:35transferring the baby to a little shopping bag instead.

02:39From North London, they headed to the port town of New Haven,

02:42arriving at five in the morning.

02:44A CCTV camera and a petrol station shows them wandering around in the early hours,

02:50before heading towards the South Downs on foot.

02:55They weren't seen again until four days later.

02:58Martin was back at the garage, buying sweets, snacks and petrol.

03:02They claimed the baby had already died by this point.

03:06The next sighting was on the outskirts of Brighton.

03:09Gordon was spotted emerging from a tent in the woods in Stanmer Park.

03:14Two weeks later, the Met Police offered a £10,000 reward for information.

03:19But it was more than a fortnight before witnesses reported further sightings.

03:24One near Hollingbury Golf Course in Brighton.

03:27Another in the Caldeen Lane area of the city.

03:30And back in Stanmer Park a day later.

03:33Witness Pauline Mason told the court she saw a mother with a baby who she believed was dead.

03:39On the 20th of February, the pair were captured on CCTV,

03:43trying and failing to break into Hollingbury Golf Course and rummaging through the bins.

03:48A week later, they were back in the same area.

03:51This time though, they would not go unnoticed.

03:54Their run was about to come to an end.

03:57They were spotted in a local shop, buying food and withdrawing cash.

04:01A member of the public who recognised them from media reporting called the police.

04:05And a few minutes later, the couple were arrested in nearby Stanmer Villas.

04:10You're under us for child neglects?

04:12Where is the child?

04:15They were repeatedly asked where the child was.

04:19Where's the child?

04:21Is the child alive?

04:23That day, the police launched a large scale search for the baby.

04:27More than 200 officers covered an area of 7 miles by 13 miles to look for the baby,

04:32from where the couple were sighted to where they were arrested.

04:35Over the next few days, an area of 90 square miles was scoured,

04:39using dogs, drones, thermal cameras and a helicopter.

04:43On March 1, police found baby Victoria's body in a disused shed near the allotments.

04:50This is the moment when baby Victoria's remains are found inside a little shopping bag.

04:56There may have been little hope at that stage of finding the child alive.

05:00But this was an ending more disturbing than anyone had thought.
