    #195 - In Too Deep - Part One (Bayswater, London, UK) Dec 15, 2022
    Show notes

    This is Part One of Two of In Too Deep.


    Back in 1968, Flat 35 on the fifth floor was an elegant and stylish two-bedroomed apartment owned by newly-weds; 53-year-old stockbroker Michael O’Carroll and 25-year-old model Janet Williams. Being a secure home, these flats have buzzers, intercoms, cameras, porters and service bells to ensure the residents safety. But on 12th March 1968 - as many homes have - Flat 35 was burgled. It had been planned as a simple get in-grab it-and get out caper, so this should have been an easy job for the robbers. But being planned by a gang who were both inept and ill-equipped, their home invasion would turn from a hostage situation into a brutal double murder.


    • Date: Tuesday 12th March 1968 (time of murder unknown, post 4:30pm)
    • Location: Flat 35, Falmouth House, Bayswater Road, W2
    • Victims: 2 (Michael St John O’Carroll & Janet Alive Williams'O'Carroll)

    #194 - The Gay Panic (Kensington, London, UK) Dec 08, 2022
    Show notes

    1962, the basement flat at 17 Pembroke Court in West Kensington was owned by George Brinham; a respected trade unionist and chairman of the Labour Party, who was hailed as a Prime Minister in the making. And yet, there is no blue plaque to George Brinham. Some might say this was down to his political affiliations, others might imply it was owing to his love life, but maybe it’s simply down to a scandal which on Saturday 17th November 1962, led to his murder.


    But why was George Brinham killed, and did a quirk of the law let his murderer go free?

    • Date: Saturday 17th November 1962 at roughly 10:15pm
    • Location: Flat 17, Pembroke Court, Edwarde Square, Kensington, London, England, W8
    • Victims: 1 (George Ivor Brinham)

    #193 - A Spoiled Brat (Regents Park, London, England) Dec 01, 2022
    Show notes

    On the 2nd of June 1935, Ms Riley, owner of a two-floor flat at 19 Gloucester Avenue in Regent’s Park asked her friend, 63-year-old Louise Gann to house-sit while she went on holiday. Feeling a little lonely in a spacious two-floor flat, for three weeks in June, Louise was accompanied by her 20-year old daughter Maxine and Maxine’s boyfriend, 28-year-old Alan Grierson.


    The morning of Saturday 22nd June 1935 had started much the same as any other. They’d had a cup of tea, a cooked breakfast, and – as Maxine and Alan headed off to work – they had agreed to meet later, to head off on a romantic weekend away in Torquay, as Louise stayed in, to housesit. It was very much an ordinary day… only Louise’s fateful decision to stay behind, would lead to her murder…


    …and it was all because of a spoiled little brat.

    • Location: Top Floor Flat, 19 Gloucester Road (was Avenue), London, United Kingdom, NW1

Both being married to others who the war had split apart, neither Glady nor Ronnie had planned to have affairs, as like so many others, they were just seeking a little affection during a turbulent time of loss and grief.

    #191 - Lyn, Jan & Him (West Brompton, London, English) Nov 17, 2022
    Show notes

    Back in 1962, Flat D on the ground floor of 60 Redcliffe Square was a one-roomed lodging which was once the home and workplace of Lyn Bain & Jan Blake - two ladies with too many secrets. Given the era, they disguised their illegal lesbian relationship as merely a tempestuous friendship, but it would be a single incident over a few drinks, a card game and a bit of telly, which would end it all.


    The evidence states that Thursday 14th September 1962 was a seemingly quiet night in Lyn & Jan. And yet, something caused them to argue and fight, for a knife to cut flesh and for a cover-up to erase what happened that night. With a secret so big, wrong, dark or strange, it left one woman in the prison, the other in the morgue and both taking their unspoken motive to the grave. But what was this secret?

    • Date: Friday 14th September 1962 at roughly 8am (stabbing)
    • Location: Flat D, 60 Redcliffe Square, West Brompton, London, England, SW10
    • Victims: 1 (Jeanette Doreen McVitie, known as Jan)
    • Culprits: 1 (Marilyn Anne Bain, known as Lyn)
    • Keywords: love triangle, jealousy, beating,

    #189 - Maggie's Fall (Westminster, London, English) Nov 03, 2022
    Show notes

    This is The Campanile, a 284-foot tower on the south-west corner of Westminster Cathedral.


    Saturday 23rd February 1924 was an ordinary day for happily married mother-of-two Margaret Ann Davey; she made breakfast, she packed some sandwiches for lunch, and – at 11:30am – she climbed the steps to the top of The Campanile.


    Having purchased a ticket, the doorman had no suspicions that her mind was unbalanced, as she seemed happy and well. But at 2:10pm, having jumped from the top, and plummeted 86 metres, she ended her life on the hard stone road of Ambrosden Avenue. But why was she so unhappy, why did she choose to die here, and did she choose to take the lives of two innocents, who were just enjoying their lunch?

    • Date: Saturday 23rd February 1924 at 2:10pm
    • Location: The Campanile, Westminster Cathedral, London, UK, SW1
    • Victims: 2 (Catherine & Margaret Davey)
