The house was known as 'The House of Horrors' and was the epicentre of the the couple's spree of murder, torture and rape - which span over two decades.
Fred - who was born in Herefordshire - and his wife Rose were collectively charged with the murders of 12 young women in Gloucestershire and buried them under the floor of the cellar and the patio in the garden.
Fred killed himself in prison before he faced trial and Rose was sentenced to life imprisonment for her involvement.
Watch the full documentary with Jayne:
Two decades after we thought we’d heard the end of the gruesome details which emerged from 25 Cromwell Street – Fred and Rose West hit the headlines.
A major police investigation was launched at a café in Gloucester after police found evidence that the body of suspected victim of Fred could be buried beneath the cellar.
Jayne Hamer said: "We'll never stop talking about Fred West.
"I think the shadow of Fred is going to hang around as long as Rose will hang around.
"After she goes it will still continue. They were a couple. They were devoted to each other and they were in this together.
Excavations begun at the Clean Plate Café on Southgate Street but no remains were found.
Instead it once again brought back the traumatic memories for the victims' families, those who knew the West's and the wider community of Gloucester.
Jayne continued: "It's going to go on for many, many years.
"It's probably going to go on until Rose passes or even after that.
"It's such a notorious subject and so many people have been done wrong by it that it's never going to go away.
The people who were impacted by the Fred and Rose's crimes will be felt for many years to come.
For Jayne, the memories of living there - the good and the bad - will stay with her for the rest of her life.
Jayne added: "Every time it re-emerges for whatever reason whatsoever it brings back memories which I absolutely dislike.
"It does bring back fond memories of the people who I knew who were lost, like my friend Shirley.
"But it also hurts because families are still looking for loved ones".
