Episode description

On the 12th of December 2015, a cyclist riding along the Chew Track at Dovestones reservoir near Saddleworth Moor discovered a man lying on the path that he believed was having a rest. On closer inspection he discovered that he was actually deceased. The man had no ID or clues to his identity except some train tickets and a medicine bottle. For 13 months the man was not identified and the police and the public were equally perplexed by the discovery. Who was the man on the moor and how was his identity discovered?
