Show Notes
Christian Thornton was the landlord of the Hammer & Pincers pub, in Widnes in the north-west of England, and a very popular landlord he was too, who was very popular and worked closely with the many charities in the community. He didn’t take any nonsense but he was a kind, good-humoured man who took his responsibilities as a landlord seriously. He had run the popular pub with his wife for 16 years and as well as their business, it was also the home of the couple and their three children.
But on one quiet and very normal Sunday, events at the pub resulted in the most shocking murder.
