Jean Windridge lived near Birmingham and was always immaculate in her appearance, with a real fondness for flashy costume jewellery which led to her gaining the nicknames among friends of ‘Diamond Lil’ and ‘Goldfinger’. She didn't wear expensive pieces, but loved the jewellery that she wore. At 78, Jean had a busy social life and lots of friends, being known locally for her kindness and sense of community. So when she was found murdered in her own home after an afternoon party at the local church, nobody could understand why anyone would want to hurt Jean. In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast I look at the circumstances surrounding the murder of Jean Windridge.

It was a normal Saturday night in Glasgow as mainly students headed to The Sanctuary nightclub. But while most were there to have some fun and enjoy time with their friends, there was one man there who was looking for something very different. Someone to attack.
In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast I cover the tragic murder of Karen Buckley.

In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast I delve into the criminal history of Paul Bint, a serial conman known as the “King Con.” Bint repeatedly posed as high-status figures, such as barristers and senior officials, to manipulate victims, often targeting women and gaining their trust before exploiting them financially. With hundreds of offences and multiple prison sentences, his story reveals how confidence fraud relies on charm, deception, and psychological manipulation rather than complex schemes. It is quite a story.

For six terrifying years, a gang of robbers carried out over twenty raids on banks and Post Offices across Merseyside, stealing around £1.5 million. Armed, masked and highly organised, they spread fear among staff and communities whilst evading capture time and time again. In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast, I look at how the gang operated, the impact on their victims, and how through great police work, the gang were brought to justice.

In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast, I look at two tragic cases where a normal night out at the pub, ended in devastating violence over minor issues. The killings of Jake Kemp and Liam Dent, both of whom lost their lives to total strangers, show how quickly situations can spiral out of control. I look at the events leading up to each killing, what happened on the night of the attacks, and the consequences faced by those responsible.

The story today is from Newcastle, in the north-east of England. Emma Golightly was very keen on internet dating and used it extensively - but not because she was looking for love, but because she was looking for money, by exploiting the men she planned to meet. And she certainly did this, telling some dreadful lies and causing terrible distress, as we will hear today...

It was a normal Friday just after 1pm when Lee Pomeroy boarded the train to London Waterloo with his 14 year old son, looking forward to spending the day together.
Instead, a minor disagreement inside a carriage spiralled into sudden, shocking violence. In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast, we explore how a routine journey became a scene of terror, the evidence that led detectives to the killer, and the devastating consequences of a few seconds of uncontrolled rage.

Bridlington, on the north-east coast of England. Local fairground worker Peter Foster first watched the film 'A Clockwork Orange' when he was just 15 and it had a profound effect on him all of his life. He often dressed like the main character, but he was also obsessed with the violence in the film - as we will hear today...
