Could you explain what you make of the conversation that went on the night of the murders when JB rang jm
when earlier in the day JB had said tonights the nice
Not a strange reaction from a call made around 3 in the middle of the night?

Not bothered about the context of the call tbh it's the timing, as proved the call was made before the alleged fathers call that SHEILA HAD A GUN. If he called Mugford before that, it couldn't have been about the sister as he alleges, so why call Mugford and why tell lies to the Police, only leads to one thing and again it was another little ploy to say look, i even called my gf because i was very worried i believe he told her to say he called around 3-30 to make the call tie in with his story and plan. He wouldn't have known though that the other house members would have been woken and clocked the time. This alone without any other hard evidence tells us he's Guilty as why lie about matters if done nothing wrong.
It proves sweet FA actually.
Bamber phoned the police and Mugford in relative rapid succession, the police logged the time at their end (so we can assume +/- 2 mins maybe (IF the police managed to log the right time at all), and the window of time at Mugford's end was clear as mud... that they narrowed down to a 30 minute window - even this was after the police allowed witnesses to talk to each other (nobody's suggesting collusion, but different estimates converge when people are aware of other estimates, I'll not go into the psychology of this, but it's a fairly repeatable phenomenon).
Anyway, essentially it neither proves Bambers innocence or guilt.
EVEN if it could ever be proven that Bamber phoned Mugford before the police, even that would not constitute guilt - it just wouldn't help him.
As for the last number redial... I believe the handset WAS 'away' (deliberately or otherwise) so any examination of it would have proven worthless.
If the phone hadn't really been sent for repair, the police could easily have determined this.
The police documented the fact that the phone had been sent away for repair. Just haven't seen anything indicating who sent it or what the fault was.
The 'redial' phone may have been able to prove
If a number was dialled
What time the number was dialled
If the number called was answered
If JB committed the crimes alone, it was in his interest to get rid of the redial phone.
If JB colluded with another, so that there was a killer at WHF and someone at Goldhanger to answer, then it was in his interest for the redial phone to be present.
If JB is innocent, and Sheila guilty, the phone fault is a cruel coincidence.
It may only be a small detail, but I would like to know who sent it away for repair.
