Lust at the Theatre: Episode 304

E

This week, we head to the north-west of England and a local theatre group. The theatre is a serious business here and the productions put on are of a very high quality, but it is also very sociable. In the episode this week, two couples from the group begin socialising, but then Chris Linaker and Jenny Cupit begin a very passionate 16 month affair, where they explore their sexual boundaries. But as we have seen so often on the UK True Crime podcast, an affair which is about sex for one party and love for another, often ends badly - and this week, we see a shocking and violent outcome.1, Please support my sponsorUK True Crime Podcast listeners get 10% off their first month at www.BetterHelp.com/TRUECRIME. 2, Buy tickets for my live show in Manchester in Octoberhttps://www.murdermiletours.com/liveshow.html?fbclid=IwAR3c-Ml3b0N9QKTu1Y7QYKMdBcHwyIMUdPlSyZ3Wo6TU4H737kWlYb7t-TA3, Please buy my book 'Gone Fishing' about the life and crimes of Angus Sinclairhttps://mangobooks.co.uk/products/gone-fishing4, Other referenced siteswww.patreon.com/uktruecrimehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimewww.uktruecrime.com4, Sourceshttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/270492.stmhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/264675.stmhttps://www.theguardian.com/uk/1999/feb/03/davidwardhttp://www.troubleandstrife.org/articles/issue-39/bad-press/https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/5306260.i-wish-to-rebuild-a-life-for-my-children/https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/5306260.i-wish-to-rebuild-a-life-for-my-children/https://www.thefreelibrary.com/INNOCENCE+KILLED+BY+ENVY%3B+Blameless+Kathryn+was+a+victim+of+sordid...-a060423324 Hosted on Acast.

The Rolex Killer: Episode 301

It was early on a summers morning in the English Channel, not far from Exeter, when the fishermen pulled up their nets. They were heavy and they were excited by what they may have caught. They found themselves looking at the fully clothed body of a middle-aged man and immediately called the police. The difficulty the police experienced was that there was no ID on the man at all, just an expensive rolex watch on his wrist.

Live Interview With Author Jason Wilson at CrimeCon London

E

At CrimeCon London last weekend, I had the pleasure of interviewing author Jason Wilson about his excellent new book, 'The Old Man And Me'. In front of a live audience, we chatted about why he wrote his book about growing up and living with his gangster father. The book is no nonsense and talks about the reality of crime, not the glamourised versions you hear about elsewhere, and in this interview Jason was very open about his life. I hope you enjoy and there is link to the book below.Buy your copy here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Old-Man-thrilling-biography-understand/dp/1913406881 Hosted on Acast.
