- 422 - The Wrong Colours: Episode 401
This week, we head to the South-West of England for a shocking story involving the mysterious world of outlaw motorcycle clubs.
There is a famous line about the Hells Angels motorcycle club – if you have to ask how to join the Hells Angels, you probably won’t understand the answer and membership probably isn’t for you.
The episode this week shows the strong ties of the members of these clubs, but on this occasion, a normal evening escalated to such an extent that an innocent man was left dead at the roadside.

Tue, 23 Jul 2024 - 27min - 421 - A Loving Family: Episode 400
The episode this week is from South Wales.
Fiona Scourfield lived on a farm with her partner, step-son, dog Bruno and 32 other animals all of whom Fiona adored. She loved animals and worked hard for charities supporting animal welfare, especially dogs.
But Fiona would be tragically murdered at just 54 by someone she had only ever shown love and affection. Shockingly, it was a member of her own family. This week, I look at just what happened to Fiona.

Sat, 13 Jul 2024 - 1h 09min - 419 - The Dice Man: Episode 399
Somebody was writing to Flight Attendants at Gatwick Airport.
Horrible, threatening notes asking for pornographic pictures and threatening violence if the demands weren't met, based on the throw of a dice.
"There are six forfeits ranging from minor to very painful... Number six is an attack with an acid bomb, although there are lots of nasty things from number three onwards."

Tue, 09 Jul 2024 - 23min - 418 - A Brutally Violent Attack: Episode 398
On this podcast I usually try to avoid the worst violence as I focus on the story. But there are some cases like this one from the north-east of England where Mark Shaw was so brutally attacked that the details of the violence are necessary to the story. Mark was killed by those close to him leaving his friends and family shocked and unable to quite comprehend just what had happened to Mark.

Tue, 02 Jul 2024 - 29min - 417 - The Reconstruction: Episode 397
It was a bright winters day in Sheffield at about 4pm as two friends were walking to return a drill bit to a tool factory. As the walked, they saw something just off the pavement in the hedges – it hadn’t been covered up and was easily spotted. It was a three foot holdall.
The two men who found it carried it down the road, thinking it contained something valuable like an engine; it was certainly big enough. The bag was covered by a bedding sheet tied with rope and the body was wrapped in polythene. They undid the rope, unzipped the bag, peeled open the polythene and got the shock of their lives. They had found a badly decomposed body - a body that was soon confirmed to be that of a man who had been murdered a number of years before.
Just who had dumped the body in this area where it would easily be found. And who had killed him - and why?

It was almost 5am on a wet and murky morning on an estate just outside Sutton Coldfield. The car pulled up and as the transaction was completed, the customer took a large knife out of his pocket and stabbed the driver of the car, 31 year old Gary Warner. Gary was seriously injured and hours later would lose his life in hospital.
But just who stabbed him? And why?

Wed, 08 May 2024 - 27min - 408 - A Shocking Murder: Episode 388
37 year old nurse Lisa Skidmore wasn’t feeling very well so didn't go to work and stayed home.
Lisa’s mum Margaret decided to head to Lisa’s house on her way to the shops to see how she was as they lived very close to each other. She let herself into Lisa house just like she has so many times before on this ordinary day. But there was nothing ordinary about this day.
Not long before, 55 year old Leroy Campbell had climbed into Lisa’s first floor bedroom using a ladder. Unbeknown to Lisa, three days earlier whilst wandering the local area, looking for someone to attack, he had clocked that Lisa lived alone and had identified her as someone he would attack. And this morning was the day he chose to carry out his attack...

Tue, 30 Apr 2024 - 22min - 407 - The Late Night Visitor: Episode 387
When the knock at the door came shortly after midnight, Carol & Keith Slater initially tried to ignore the noise, assuming it was just kids messing around or maybe someone at the wrong address.
But as the knocking continued, Carol told Keith he should pop down and see who was at the door in case it was related to their two young children who were staying with Grandparents that night. It might be the police, maybe there had been an accident.
Minutes later, Keith was dead - at just 33 years old - and so many lives changed forever.

It was late - almost midnight - by a quarry near the forest.
The police had arrived as a car had been reported for driving in an erratic manner. The woman was clearly very uncomfortable and didn't want the officers to look inside the two suitcases.
The bodycam is startling as an officer opens one of the bags. There is an audible sharp exhale of breath when what he is looking at hits home. The officer says in both horror and astonishment: "What the f***."

Tue, 16 Apr 2024 - 24min - 405 - The Fell Runner: Episode 385
Lauren Jeska was a fell runner.
As a transgender athlete, she had been asked to provide evidence of hormone levels after historical complaints to UK Athletics that she had an unfair advantage competing in women’s events because she had been born a man.
The policy of the governing body required the athlete to take a blood test, but she took exception to this and feared being unable to compete.
Lauren saw this as an attack on her life and decided to take drastic action.

Tue, 02 Apr 2024 - 24min - 403 - The Crime Writer: Episode 383
John Warrington was interested in making money and had built up a portfolio of several commercial premises and two houses. But when market conditions took a turn for the worse, he was soon in massive debt and his life was spiralling out of control. He needed urgent results before he lost everything.
John's solution was to write a crime thriller - sure, an unusual choice. When the publishers weren't interested and time was running out before he lost everything, he decided to roll the dice one last time by using the storyline of the novel in his real life...

21 year old Libby Squire, who was studying philosophy at Hull University, had been out with her friends that Thursday evening. They had been drinking around one of their mates houses before heading out. But at the end of the night the bouncers had not let her in the nightclub, The Welly, as they thought she was too tipsy. Nothing unusual here, many of us have been there - so her friends put her in a taxi and paid the fare to ensure she got home safely.
But Libby didn't make it home.
This week we discover the horrible truth of just what happened to Libby.

Tue, 12 Mar 2024 - 24min - 400 - The Lawn Mower Plot: Episode 380
Susan and Christopher Whybrow - a wealthy barrister - were the fortunate occupants of a beautiful farmhouse in Leavenheath, Suffolk, set within 12 acre gardens. After almost 10 years of marriage, to many people the couple had it all; the idyllic property and a comfortable lifestyle with no money worries. And yet as we know, in all of our lives things are not often quite as we portray to the outside world.
In our story today: flying lessons, an illicit affair, a trial at the Old Bailey - and a lawn mower.

Todays story is from Liverpool where a shooting outside a nightclub left a number of questions unanswered. Serious players in the underworld were loosely connected and did all they could to make the charges related to the shooting go away. Add to this mix an attempt to bribe a Police Officer and a 90's reality star and that is this weeks story on the UK True Crime Podcast.

It was just one of the thousands of missing persons cases that were reported in the UK that year when 63 year old Don Banfield disappeared from his home in north-west London. He had been having issues in his marriage and had talked about moving back to Trinidad - where he was born and the place he loved. But he had spoken to a number of people about being concerned for his safety: had Don come to harm?
Just what happened to Don Banfield?

Cornwall isn't the sort of place you associate with large scale drug imports from South America, IRA terrorists and murder.
But in this episode of the UK True Crime podcast, we hear a story that involved all of these things.
When detectives quizzed local farmer Ross Stone about cannabis being grown on his farm, they could never expected that he would reveal that two missing men -Brett Flournoy (l) & David Griffiths (r) were also buried there.
But was he responsible for the killings?

At the beginning of this century, when the internet was new for most people - and before the social media giants claimed their turf - chatrooms were very popular, especially with teenagers.
Mark was 16 and lived in Stockport in the north-west of England. He was a regular on the Manchester Teens chatroom. But whilst he was there to have some fun and chat to girls, not everyone he spoke to had such simple motives. As he was soon to discover...

"The things I have done weigh heavily on my heart, on my head and my soul. A psychopath with a conscience - it's a joke really."
Alexandra Morgan told her parents she was going on a spa break with a friend, but when she didn't pick up her children and dog when she should have done a few days later, her mum reported her disappearance to the police.
Police enquiries pointed to a local groundworker Mark Brown and a yard he rented near Hastings: a yard with buildings and a shipping container at Little Bridge Farm. But as detectives searched for Alexandra, they found medication relating to another missing woman, Leah Ware.
Was Mark Brown responsible for both disappearances?

But who killed him and left two children without a father? And why?

Tue, 21 Nov 2023 - 25min - 382 - Acceptance: Episode 364
It was 11.57pm when the emergency services were called to a house fire in Woking, Surrey. The call was made by a panicking and distressed Alan Jermey. On the call to the fire service, Alan confirmed he was on the roof of the house with his two young daughters, “I'm upstairs, the fire is downstairs. There is just smoke coming up.” It was two minutes into the call that he told the operator: “The thing is, I don't know where my partner is.... I went to bed early……”.
As we hear so often on this podcast, everything was not as it seemed.

Jed Allen grew up in Didcot. But normality was something Jed was not accustomed to in his family upbringing as his mum suffered from alcohol and heroin addiction and all the issues that brings to family life.
By 21 Jed was clearly suffering frustration at the way his life was working out and he became obsessed with Wolverine - the fantasy creature who is a social outcast and loner facing an inner battle to retain his humanity with his desire for bloodshed.
And then one day, Jed committed a terrible act of shocking violence....

This episode of the UK True Crime Podcast comes from Morecambe, in north-west England.
One evening, 49 year old Antonio ‘Tony’ Marrocco didn't return home after a day working at his garage - which was most out of character. His wife called the police and when they arrived at his garage they found his body: he had been brutally murdered. And the body of his colleague, 29 year old Paul Sandham, was found shortly afterwards.
A double killer was on the loose....

When Rebecca Aylward went to secondary school near her home in Maesteg, South Wales, she met Joshua Davies and the pair quickly hit it off and became firm friends.
Rebecca and Joshua were both academic, worked hard and were soon top of the class in their results. Soon the pair began to date, but then there were concerns about Joshua's behaviour. Concerns that continued to grow, but nobody could have predicted that Joshua was capable of extreme violence. And murder.

Tue, 05 Sep 2023 - 22min - 371 - Nice John - Episode 354Everyone like John Hirst. So much so he was even known at his home in Majorca as 'Nice John'. He was found in all the right clubs and at all the events where the wealthy ex-pats gathered on the Island.
Perma-tanned John lived in an expensive villa with his wife Linda and they enjoyed a fantastic lifestyle with all the trappings of success with many exotic holidays, designer clothes and jewellery, a luxury motor boat and two top of the range cars – an open topped sports car for Linda and a top of the range Mercedes for John.
But this apparent success was all based on lies and deception, and as the financial markets declined, John fled back to the UK knowing that everything was about to come crashing down, ruining the lives of many of his friends who had trusted him with their money.

Mon, 12 Jun 2023 - 29min - 359 - Murder in the South-West: Episode 342In the early hours of the morning, in Central Park in Plymouth, the bodies of Terry Sweet and Bernie Hawken were discovered lying just 200 yards apart in the park and it was clear that both had suffered a violent assault.
Sadly, soon after the police arrived, Terry died from his injuries, aged just 64. Miraculously, Bernie survived the horrific attack, but his injuries were so severe that he spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
Just who had attacked these two men? And why?

The A1 (M) is a busy motorway, and at 6.17pm on a summers day there were a few issues northbound due to an earlier fuel spillage.
As the traffic slowed, none of the people in their cars patiently heading towards their destinations could have imagined that a 3.5 tonne lorry would not stop, and plough into the traffic, with terrible consequences.

Mon, 08 May 2023 - 22min - 353 - The Drugs Importation: Episode 337The international crime gang had planned everything, covered every detail.
And as 33 year old Andrew Cole stood on the deck, he realised that his whole life depended on what happened in the next few hours. Andrew was listed as crew on the manifest, but his role was a very clear one – it was up to him to ensure the safe receipt, passage and transfer of the cocaine to a crew who were going to come out from the UK to take delivery of it near the English Channel.
But as the Kahu reached the end of its journey from Barbados as it cruised past Guernsey, Andrew thought he heard a noise – or was it just his imagination playing tricks on him? He then clearly saw two vessels approach and to his horror he realised that is was the 42 metre Border Force cutter ‘Searcher’ along with the 19 metre coastal patrol vessel ‘Alert’. The gang had been rumbled....

Mon, 01 May 2023 - 26min - 352 - The Murder of Anna Kenny: Bonus Mini-Episode20 year old Anna Kenny was walking to George Square in the centre of Glasgow to get a bus home when she was taken from the street and never seen alive again. Nobody has ever been convicted of her murder.
In 2021, along with co-author Chris Clark, I released a book, 'Gone Fishing' about serial killer Angus Sinclair where we suggested that Sinclair was responsible for the murder of Anna Kenny. Can it just be coincidence that Anna's friend who was with her on the night she went missing married Sinclair's brother-in-law Gordon Hamilton? And why did Sinclair and Hamilton argue so badly on the night ahead of the wedding that the two never spoke again - was this about Anna's murder?
My book, 'Gone Fishing' hasn't been available for a while but now it is back available to buy on Amazon, on kindle & paperback, and you can hear more about the terrible solved - and unsolved - crimes of Angus Sinclair.

When Police Constable David Haigh was asked to deliver a summons to a poacher, it was quite a routine procedure for a police officers covering such a rural area. However, when the officer failed to return and couldn’t be contacted, his colleague PC Mick Clipston was sent out to find the missing officer. As he approached the tree lined, picnic area known as Norwood Edge he came upon a police car in a clearing at the side of the road with the doors open.
As he got closer and parked he could see somebody was laid next to the car. To his shock and great distress, it was the dead body of his colleague, with a single bullet wound in the middle of his forehead.

The harbour at Carradale is sheltered and looks out at the deep waters of Kibrannan Sound and then the towering mountains of Aaron.
It is a beautiful, peaceful spot and if you look carefully, you will see a small memorial plaque on the harbour wall, commemorating the crew of the FV Antares, who lost their lives at sea. In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast, I look at just what happened to the FV Antares off the coast of Scotland.

Tue, 07 Mar 2023 - 23min - 343 - A Glasgow Double Murder: Episode 328This week, the UK True Crime podcast is from Cambuslang, about 6 miles southeast of the centre of Glasgow, as I look at a terrifying double murder.
The body of 36 year-old taxi driver Cathy McChord was found with her body crammed into the boot of the car, with the meter still running. Cathy’s cigarette lighter, inhaler and car keys placed in a straight-line. Suggesting a ritualistic element to the crime.
Two months after Cathy’s murder another body was found when 48 year-old Elizabeth Walton was found in the grounds of her daughter’s school. After declining a lift home, Elizabeth was attacked and then strangled as she walked back home from an evening out. When police found Elizabeth’s body they found ritualistic and symbolic acts had taken place, similar to those of Cathy.
The police knew they were searching for a double killer.....

This show is touring for the next year and will be at a theatre near you soon - I highly recommend buying a ticket and finding out much more about some of the investigations in which David has personally been involved, as well as other high-profile cases.

Tue, 10 Jan 2023 - 23min - 334 - Tragedy at Tebay: Episode 320It was a dark, winters morning as the 10 men group carried out maintenance on the railway line near Tebay. The men wore their safety helmets to block out the noise of their machinery and there was no look-out as the line was closed in both directions. So when the 20 tonne wagon came hurtling down the track towards them at 40 miles per hour it was completely unexpected.
As one fellow worker put it, "This was the worst nightmare for any rail man - an un-manned wagon coming straight at you out of the pitch darkness." Four men were killed instantly that morning and others injured in the tragedy. Today, I tell their story.
