#5DayBritishMysteryChallenge, Day 5: Name a lesser-known British mystery movie or TV show that you'd recommend to a friend! My pick: The Snorkel (1958). It starts out with an ingenious "perfect murder." The audience knows the identity of the killer--but will he be caught?

April 10th 2003 - Little Eva (Boyd), whose version of "The Loco-Motion" went all the way to #1 in the US in 1962, passed away at the age of 59 after a long illness. Boyd was born in Belhaven, North Carolina in 1943 and had twelve siblings. At the age of fifteen, she moved to the Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn, New York. As a teenager, Boyd worked as a maid and earned extra money as a babysitter for songwriters Carole King and Gerry Goffin (including for the young Louise Goffin). Boyd continued performing until she was diagnosed with cervical cancer in October 2001. She died on April 10, 2003, in Kinston, North Carolina, at the age of 59, and is buried in a small cemetery in Belhaven, North Carolina. Boyd's gravesite was sparsely marked until July 2008, when a report by WRAL-TV of Raleigh, North Carolina, highlighted deteriorating conditions at the cemetery and efforts by the city of Belhaven to have it restored. A simple white cross had marked the site until a new gravestone was unveiled in November of that year. Boyd's new grey gravestone has the image of a steam locomotive prominently engraved on the front and the epitaph reads: "Singing with the Angels".

April 10th 1970 Emerson, Lake And Palmer was formed when drummer Carl Palmer joined keyboardist Keith Emerson and singer / guitarist Greg Lake. The band’s debut was the first so-called supergroup in progressive rock. For a while, the drum kit was being considered with Mitch Mitchell, who played in Jimi Hendrix’s band. However, the atmosphere cooled down when Mitchell came waving a handgun at the band meeting. Emerson and Lake decided to pass and look for a more balanced drummer.
