The rings were still removed against Jeremy´s (the next of kin) wish. And it seems nobody told him that they were removed, which is WRONG.
Jeremy jumping up and down with glee and rubbing his hands??? I call BS on that one! It makes no sense at all
It doesn´t say who removed the rings.
I don´t understand though that Jeremy only learned about this in 2013 - it is in Colin´s book, hasn´t he read it? I find that hard to believe.
P.S. I think Colin was prevented by the relatives from seeing granny Speakman because she thought Jeremy was innocent. That wouldn´t fit with their (obvious) "working on" Colin.
A small correction to my post from earlier today (during lunch break). I read Caroline´s transcript of part of the page in Colin´s book, and it doesn´t mention the undertaker in the transcript.
I have just read the page from the book that Caroline later put up, and it does mention the undertaker. It says that he was "upset" by leaving the rings on Jeremy´s parents and Sheila (must include Nevill, Colin writes: His parents and Bambs, so perhaps Nevill wore a wedding band?) - or what does it say? Colin is a little vague in his wording here, I think.
Why would the undertaker be upset by that - does that even make sense? And as I wrote earlier: Jeremy´s laughing and rubbing his hands with glee makes even less sense!
From what Colin writes, it seems that the rellies thought the rings were on their fingers when they were cremated - and that HE, Colin, told them that the Mr Cock had the jewellery in his safe deposit box. Apparently, Colin writes, the undertaker (on the order of Mr Cock??), had gone behind Jeremy´s back and removed the jewellery after all..... Really??? I mean,
REALLY?! Sounds unethical and perhaps even illegal to me.
Then Colin goes on to write that Jeremy might have made a pact with "the dark side" (!!!) and had been afraid that someone by touching the jewellery might "see" the whole scene as it had happened........ - "Occult practice and ritual magic"....... Seems the Sheila not only had a mother who was a religous maniac, but also a husband/ex who had some PRETTY weird thoughts about spirituality.

Now I take Colin´s remark about Jeremy, "studying him to learn how to mimick grief", even less seriously!
Can just see the rellies around that tea table telling Colin about Jeremy´s "transvestite tendencies." Good LORD!
I think we would have heard about Jeremy prancing around the village in women´s clothing from other sources if that had really happened! That is something people would notice and talk about.
I don´t believe this. He had a gay friend, yes. He may be/have been bi-sexual, I don´t know, and it is none of my business. I think the family exaggerated the fact he had a gay friend into this crazy story! Surprised they didn´t say he sat on his tractor every day in a pink tutu.
I have a lot of sympathy for what Colin went through, I can´t even begin to imagine; but this just made me lose a little bit of trust in his judgement overall.
