Ian Watkins: The Dark Downfall of a Lostprophets Star | Seeing Dead 02.06.2026 44minWe're taking a short mid-season break this week, but rather than leave the feed silent, we thought we'd share an episode from Mark's other podcast, Dead Famous. This episode forms part of a recent trilogy examining famous figures whose lives ended in scandal, criminality and public disgrace. It's a very different show to Seeing Red, but we suspect many of you will find the story every bit as compelling. If you'd like to hear the rest of the trilogy, or explore more episodes from Dead Famous, you'll find them all wherever you're listening right now. We'll be back next week with a brand new episode of Seeing Red. Thanks, as always, for being here. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

The Wrongfully Convicted Husband? The Murder of Christine Morton | Texas True Crime 26.05.2026 58minThis week on Seeing Red, we travel back to Texas in the 1980s to examine a case that began with the brutal murder of Christine Morton — and led to one of the most shocking miscarriages of justice in modern American criminal history. Her husband, Michael Morton, quickly became the focus of the investigation and was convicted of her murder. But years later, serious questions began to emerge about what had really happened, and whether the wrong man had been sent to prison while the real killer remained free. We discuss the investigation, the evidence, the conviction, and the extraordinary fight that would eventually expose devastating failures within the justice system. A story of loss, wrongful conviction, and a search for the truth that took decades. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

The Racist Murder of Anthony Walker | UK Hate Crime Case 19.05.2026 59minIn July 2005, 18-year-old Anthony Walker was attacked in a Liverpool park in a crime that shocked the UK and became one of Britain’s most devastating modern hate crime cases. Anthony was intelligent, ambitious, and preparing for university when a night out with friends turned into something unthinkably violent. As the investigation unfolded, detectives uncovered a brutal attack driven by racism — and a case that would spark national outrage, soul-searching, and calls for change. This week on Seeing Red we examine the life of Anthony Walker, the events leading up to his murder, the police investigation, and the lasting impact his death had on his family and the wider community.

Constance Marten & Mark Gordon: The Death of Baby Victoria 12.05.2026 1h 4minThis week on Seeing Red, Bethan takes the reins solo to untangle the disturbing and deeply tragic case of Constance Marten and Mark Gordon. In early 2023, the aristocrat-turned-fugitive and her convicted rapist partner vanished with their newborn daughter, Baby Victoria, triggering a nationwide manhunt that gripped the UK. As the couple travelled across the country attempting to evade police and social services, questions mounted: why were they running, what were they hiding, and where was the baby? What followed was one of the most unsettling and heartbreaking investigations in recent memory. Bethan explores the backgrounds of both Marten and Gordon, the strange journey that led them underground, and the devastating discovery that shocked the nation.

Murdered by a Man in a Clown Mask? The Carol Wardell Story 05.05.2026 1h 23minIn 1994, Gordon Wardell went on TV claiming a gang of men in clown masks had attacked him, tied him up, robbed a building society… and murdered his wife, Carol. Which is… a lot. Carol Wardell was a devoted sister and daughter, quietly getting on with her life — not the kind of person you’d expect to end up at the centre of something this violent. So how does someone like that end up strangled and left at the side of a road? This week’s episode looks at the life at the centre of it all… and the huge, messy, very public version of events that followed. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

Murder by Remote Control 28.04.2026 1h 4minPainkillers. Cold medicine. Morphine, if you're Mark! Something to take the edge off a headache. In 1982, people across Chicago did exactly that — and some of them never got back up. This week on Seeing Red, we’re talking about the case that changed everything: the Chicago Tylenol murders. Cyanide-laced capsules. Random victims. A killer who never had to meet the people they murdered — just quietly tamper with bottles and put them back on the shelf. But it didn’t stop there. Because once the fear was out in the world, someone else saw an opportunity. We also look at the copycat killings that followed — including a case where “random” poisonings were anything but, and innocent people died to cover up a far more personal murder. This is murder without warning, without motive you can see, and without a suspect we can name. So… how safe is that bottle in your bathroom cabinet? www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

Mr Zig Zag: The Disappearance of Jo Ramsden 21.04.2026 1h 7minIn April 1991, 21-year-old Jo Ramsden disappeared from the Dorset town of Bridport, a place she knew well and where her routine rarely changed. When she didn’t return home, concern quickly turned into a desperate search. Witnesses reported seeing Jo with a man in a distinctive zig-zag patterned jumper — a sighting that would become central to the case. Despite strong suspicions around a known offender, no one has ever been charged with Jo’s disappearance. More than three decades later, the identity of “Mr Zig Zag” — and what really happened to Jo — remains unknown, although we have strong suspicions... www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

Nanny Doss: The Giggling Killer 15.04.2026 1h 24minThis week on Seeing Red, we meet a woman who looked like she’d stepped straight out of a 1950s love story — but left a trail of bodies behind her. Nanny Doss was charming, chatty… and deadly. With a fixation on love and happily-ever-afters, she approached marriage the same way Bethan approaches an all you can eat buffet — aggressively and without hesitation — each one ending in a strangely convenient death. But it didn’t stop there. Her victims weren’t just the men she married — family members, too, found themselves in the path of her quiet, calculated cruelty. Using poison as her weapon of choice, she slipped death into everyday life with chilling ease, all while keeping that unsettling, ever-present smile. In this episode, we unravel the bizarre, darkly absurd story of a woman who treated murder like a means to an end… and sometimes, disturbingly, like a joke. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

Priceless: The Murder of Michael Griffiths 07.04.2026 1h 10minMichael Griffiths dealt in antiques — rare, highly sought-after pieces. But in 2013, he became the target of something far less refined: a gang of burglars chasing a quick payday. What followed wasn’t just a robbery gone wrong — it was brutal, calculated, and left behind a trail of evidence as chaotic as the crime itself. This week, we dig into how greed turned deadly… and why some people will kill for fast cash. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

Naomi Smith: Murder in Nuneaton 31.03.2026 1hIn 1995, 15-year-old Naomi Smith left her home in Nuneaton, Warwickshire — and never returned. What followed was a case that would shock a community, expose uncomfortable truths, and leave lasting scars on a town that thought it was safe. In this episode, Bethan explores Naomi’s life, the events leading up to her murder, and the investigation that followed — asking how something so brutal could happen in broad daylight, and whether justice ever truly feels like enough. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag www.justthrivehealth.com/CX Learn more about your ad choices.

We unpack who Alex was, what happened in the lead-up to his death, and how the investigation pieced together the final movements of a boy whose life ended far too soon.

Anne Faber: The Day She Didn’t Come Home - Part 1 18.03.2026 29minAnne Faber should have made it home. In Part One, we follow the life of a bright, warm, and deeply loved young woman whose ordinary Friday bike ride would become anything but. We trace Anne’s world — her family, her relationship, her work, her future plans — and the quiet chain of decisions happening in the background that no one could have known were converging. As the hours pass and Anne doesn’t return, confusion turns to dread. Searches begin. Questions mount. And a community starts to realise that something is very, very wrong. This is the story of the build-up — the warning signs, the missed opportunities, and the devastating moment when a normal day tips into tragedy. Part Two covers the aftermath. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag www.justthrivehealth.com/CX Learn more about your ad choices.

Murder on Silverdale Close 04.03.2026 47minOn 3 January 2025, in a quiet block of flats on Silverdale Close in Aylesbury, 76-year-old John “JJ” Jones was murdered in a brutal, two-stage attack. That afternoon had been painfully ordinary. John spent it the way he’d spent countless others — talking football with friends down the pub and picking up a bit of shopping, before heading home to his flat. Routine. But by late afternoon, he was dead. John’s family and neighbours described him as a beloved figure — a devoted father and grandfather, an ardent football fan, and a friendly, familiar presence around Silverdale Close. The sheer senselessness of his killing left a tight-knit community reeling, struggling to understand how a man like John could end up murdered on his own doorstep. So who would want him dead — and why? www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag www.justthrivehealth.com/CX Learn more about your ad choices.

The Murder of James Self: When Control Turns Deadly 25.02.2026 52minWhen we talk about domestic abuse, there’s a narrative people expect. This case doesn’t fit it. In this week’s episode of Seeing Red, we examine the murder of James Self — a man killed by his female partner after what those close to them describe as a volatile and controlling relationship. We look at how abuse can look different when the victim is male. The warning signs that are often dismissed. The cultural blind spots that make it harder for men to be believed — or even to recognise what’s happening to them in the first place. Domestic abuse isn’t defined by gender. It’s defined by control, fear, and escalation.And when we fail to recognise that, people slip through the cracks. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.
