The actor was just 18 years old when he was stabbed to death while defending his brother after a night out in the village of Sidcup, London, in May 2008. Knox was celebrating his big acting debut when he learned that his brother had been threatened with a knife.

When he and his friends rushed to disarm the attacker, Rob was stabbed and killed. Karl Bishop, who was 22 at the time, was found guilty of stabbing Knox five times. Bishop was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum of 20 years before parole eligibility.

After his death, ITV commissioned a documentary titled (K)Nox: The Rob Knox Story in 2021. The documentary follows what happened before the tragic event and also how the family dealt with their pain and anger while under the spotlight.

On social media, users admitted that they were moved by the documentary. “I watched it last night. What a touching and emotional documentary,” said one. “I cried the whole time. So, so sad. Rest in peace, Rob,” commented another.
