After taking that one step, the boy looks at the horse and says: Now what?

The horse: Can you see another step?

After his death in 1865, it was discovered that he was actually Margaret Ann Bulkley, a woman who had lived as a man in order to pursue a career in medicine.

Jill Dando, an accomplished English journalist who gained widespread recognition for her role as a co-presenter on the BBC One unsolved crimes show Crimewatch, tragically met her untimely demise when she was fatally shot outside her London residence in 1999. The shocking incident sparked an extensive investigation that led to the conviction and imprisonment of a local man; however, after spending eight years behind bars, he was eventually acquitted. Two decades after the tragic event that claimed her life, the BBC paid tribute to Dando's memory by releasing a compelling documentary titled The Murder of Jill Dando. Despite the passage of time and the thorough inquiry, the case surrounding her death continues to baffle investigators, remaining unresolved to this day, leaving a lingering sense of mystery and loss in its wake.
