Susanna Reid travels to Texas, home of the most active death chamber in the United States, to meet the notorious Death Row inmate Billie Wayne Coble in the countdown to his scheduled execution. In 1989, Billie pled guilty to triple murder and has been languishing on Death Row ever since. Now 70 years old, Billie is fighting for a last-minute stay of execution ... if it fails, he is set to become the oldest man put to death in Texas for over 100 years. Susanna is granted Billie's final television interview in the eight-day run up to his death date. In this intense meeting, Susanna revisits the night of the crime in an attempt to find out why Billie Wayne committed these senseless murders. Delving into his family life, Susanna builds a picture of what kind of man Billie was back in 1989, and what kind of man he is now. Death is inevitable but what is it like knowing when, where and how you are going to die?
