  • The City Trader Who Knew Too Much : Episode 513
    May 28 2026

    Behind the polished world of high finance was a trader accused of helping manipulate one of the world’s most important interest rates. This episode explores the rise and fall of Tom Hayes, the former City trader at the centre of the LIBOR scandal, examining the culture of banking, the pursuit of profit, and the global investigation that followed. Was Hayes a rogue operator, or a scapegoat for a broken financial system?

  • A Deadly Grudge : Episode 512
    May 25 2026

    It was a small village in Hertfordshire, where very little ever disturbed the peace - certainly not the kind of brutal violence that unfolded when retired Army Colonel Robert Workman was shot dead on his own doorstep.


    Robert was an old-fashioned military man: well spoken, private, proud, and known for his calm and easy-going nature. He lived a quiet life and had no obvious enemies. So when news spread that he had been murdered outside his own home, the question on everyone’s mind was chillingly simple - who could possibly have wanted him dead, and why?

  • Caught In The Crossfire : Episode 511
    May 21 2026

    In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast from the north-west of England, I cover the devastating murder of Elle Edwards - an innocent young woman caught in the crossfire when gun violence erupted outside a busy pub.


    What began as a normal night out ended in chaos within seconds, leaving a family shattered and an entire community searching for answers. Detectives launched a major investigation as CCTV footage, forensic evidence and witness accounts were pieced together to uncover exactly what happened. I explore the events leading up to the shooting, the hunt for the gunman and the court case that followed, in a case that shocked Merseyside and the wider UK.


    I release episodes every Tuesday and Friday, so please join me on Tuesday for the next episode of the UK True Crime Podcast.

I first came across this podcast on Spotify which was great for me but finding it here just makes me want to listen to every episode again!
I highly recommend if you are interested in true crime but prefer a short summary of cases, most episodes are 20 ish minutes so they're great for snapshots of events. Very easy listen!

A brilliant addition to my week

Living in the UK myself and being fascinated by true crime, this is exactly the podcast I need to hear about it. Well done guys!

Brilliant show!

I'm new to this podcast and pleasantly surprised. As many "fans" of the genre - I'm not sure if fans is the right word - I find true crime fascinating, I detest the "exciting" delivery style on many a Netflix documentary that glamourises the crime and/or perpetrator.

In contrast, this podcast looks at at the details of the crimes covered in a much more measured tone and Adam always takes time to remind the listener of the victims and their loved ones.

He praises and admonishes the police as appropriate to the specific case. This is unusual as many I have heard will make excellent police work sound surprising.

I love the musical and historical context given at the start of each episode.

The advertisements were a bit of a shock as I usually listen to audiobooks and podcasts without them but I'm steadily working my way through them so it can't be that off-putting!
