Always well told stories.
I never usually leave reviews but I just had to for you. One of my favorite podcasts, I love the you keep episodes to around 30 minutes but still give plenty of information and facts about the local areas. I normally listen when I'm in bed going to sleep and your voice is very soothing. If I could suggest a case that I've not seen many podcasts covering which is quite surprising as it's one of the worst racist murders along with Stephen Lawrence. The case of Kriss Donald from Glasgow. I was around the same age and from the same sort of area so it hits close to my heart. Hopefully you add it to your list. Thank you Stuart for everything you do, keeping these victims alive through your podcast.
Great!
I found your podcast after it was suggested on Spotify about a month ago, been binging ever since, whilst working in my shed learning silversmithing. Now completely caught up, so off to binge Killer Stories with Bobbie Holmes. Could you cover the murder of Susan Nicholson by Robert Trigg. As its a Worthing based murder my home town! Thanks Stu
Finally
Finally a Northern accent and a down to earth northerner. I’m in the north west so not quite as far north as you but I swear this is the best podcast I have found to date. British crime and British areas I know or I can at least know where to look on a map. Trully compassionate podcaster. Thanks again Kerry xx Near Wigan
Well researched cases and quickly executed
I found Stuart’s podcast about 6 months ago and it’s taken me up until now to get to series 10 which I have started this week. Stuart tells the cases in a really intriguing way, I like how he gets you to remember the victims as well, especially the Peter Sutcliffe 2 part, they were really good an dit’s true, the victims are always forgotten. There are a couple of cases I would love to see Stuart cover, the first is one that happened back in the late 80’s, the victim was 14 year old boy called Stuart Gough and he was murdered by Victor Miller, this was local to me at the time and in all the news papers, it’s the first memory I have on murder cases but I can’t find much information on the case so I’m hoping Stuart can. The second case I would like covered is the case of Stephanie Slater and Julie Dart, the criminal here was Michael Sams, Stephanie lived a few streets away from me at the time, so this case was very close. Excellent Podcast Stuart, keep up the good work, these series should be made for TV by the way, they would be a great hit!
Just brilliant
I just discovered this podcast and I love it. Your ice breakers and accurate rounded cover of each case including town backgrounds. I’m a Brit currently working in Spain and it has provided a welcome link to home and making spreadsheeting tasks a bit more interesting. I’d love to hear you cover the case of Terry Edmonds from Tunbridge wells, thanks again , Hannah
GORESOME
Having listened to the podcast for the past year with my Fiancée every time we go out in the car it is the only podcast I have ever enjoyed Listening too, the way Stu tells the story makes for easy enjoyable listening. Waiting for each new episode to see where the story will unfold. Love it 😀 keep up the great work Stuart
BRITISH MURDERS PODCASTS
I was recommended it by the podcast ‘Seeing Red’ couple recently and I haven’t looked back. I love the stories and Stuart has a real talent of presenting himself so well during his podcasts. I also like his accent and the banter he has with other guests on various shows.
Brilliant
Found this podcast awhile ago now and absolutely love it!! Such care and compassion for the Victims and their family’s 🙏🏻
Best podcast by far!
Hi Stu! I’m a truck driver, and I was recommended a British murder podcast by a friend of mine. I couldn’t remember what it was called, so I did a search for British Murders (obviously), and was HOOKED from the first episode! I’ve caught up now to Season 3 Episode 9, and I won’t lie to you, I was absolutely devastated to know that I have to wait for episodes now! That said, I do have some interviews to catch up on, so it’s not all doom and gloom just yet. I love the episode length, it’s perfect, and the detail you go into, without being boring, is brilliant. You come across as kind and compassionate to the victims, and the little adlibs you come up with to describe the villains are accurate and funny, though I’d usually use much more colourful language! I tried episode one of REDRUM, and I’m not sure it’s for me. Very different style to your good self, but I’m going to persevere for a few episodes and see how I go. Thanks for the podcast, I can’t wait for new episodes! I originally hail from a town called Sudbury, in Suffolk (not far from Bury St Edmunds/Ipswich/Colchester/Haverhill), and wonder if there’s any chance of you finding a murder in Sudbury, pretty please? Keep on keeping on, you’re doing a GRAND job.
Reminds me of home
As a Brit now living in Hobart, Tasmania. I love listening to UK podcasts as they give me a feel of home. And this is the best one around, and by miles the best true crime one. Stu is amazing, very thorough in his research and takes it so seriously, his work is incredible and I look forward to the new episodes. G’day mate and cheerio. P.S. any chance you could cover the case of Colette Aram from Keyworth in Nottingham?
Brilliant podcast
I recently found this podcast and have pretty much listened to them all. So interesting and so easy to listen to. Have now signed up so don’t miss one.
Sensational
I love this podcast, I listen on Spotify. I came across it by accident and have never looked back. I live in Australia and have exhausted all of the Australian True Crime Podcasts, I'm sure of it. I was born in the UK so I also have a sick fascination with British True Crimes. I am loving the location descriptions and also the history that you provide. I also love fun facts for reference and the true facts that sound like Bullshit. Keep up the great work Stuart, I cannot get enough of this podcast and your sense of humour. Well done for the last 4 years, keep going!!!
Brilliant, been listening for years
I work night shifts and find listening to your podcasts helps the night go a little quicker, I have recommended your podcast to my colleagues. I love the care you pay to ensuring each episode is about the victim rather than the murderer or the crime and also appreciate that you touch on lesser known cases. I have a case suggestion - the murder of 15 year old Helen Gorrie in 1992. A man was convicted of her murder but that conviction was thrown out on technical grounds.
Fabulous podcast
Have now binged every episode and eagerly await for more. Well told getting in all the relevant facts into the timeline. Love the accent, have found myself going northern with a few words you use. Love the added humour of fun facts and the 5 facts just add to the story. Now my favourite podcast. Please can you add Ellie Gould from Calne Wiltshire to your ever growing list. Thank you
Great Podcast
I found this podcast a while back but have recently been bingeing. One of my favourites by far! True Crime is my main genre of choice but as an English person, I really enjoy the premise of this show as find it far more relatable than the American ones (for the places, not the crimes!). Stuart’s voice is very soothing, I like his cheeky persona and I find each episode is very sympathetic to the victims and well researched. I also enjoy the occasional bonus eps. Glad I’ve cottoned on a few years down the line so I’ve got lots to binge ☺️
Amazing bite size true stories
I love true crime and was advised to listen to these pod casts, so glad I did, the host Stuart is great and as much as these are harrowing stories he tries to keep it light hearted. I love the explanations of what things translate to. They certainly make my journeys to work much bett
Still loving it!
Love the tale telling, really enjoy the interviews and love the round tables with the royalty/ A list of true crime podscasters Paul, Adam, Mike et al! Appreciate the effort and dedication you put in a lot.
Love this podcast
Stuart thank you for your dedication. Am a fellow Northerner ( Geordie) Transplanted in Florida. Just listened to your podcast of Susan Min. To say it brought me flash backs is an understatement. I fortunately escaped my abusive marriage where I was strangled unconscious more times then I care to remember. I can only hope your compassion for the victims and awareness of physical abuse reaches someone in a bad relationship before it’s too late for them. Keep up your obvious passion
I love this podcast! Stuart has a fab voice and is engaging and interesting. I always learn something. I’ve recommended to my daughter and she’s loving it too!
LOVE THESE PODCASTS!
Love these podcasts! Have been binging all episodes and have nearly caught up. Nice length and great for listening to at work. Have recommended to friends.
Down to earth and real true crimer
I love this podcast. I clean to it and study to it. I am a true crime lover and adore his down to earth approach. You should do a collaboration with That Chapter as I think your chemistry would be amazing! Thankyou for your persistence and gettinf people’s stories out there. I will make a list of cases to request! :)
Fantastic podcast can’t get enough
I binged through all of the podcasts and I’m sadly up to date, utterly amazing. Well researched and delivered in a perfect and engaging manner. Thanks Stu.
