British Murders is a UK true crime podcast exploring both headline making investigations and lesser known cases that deserve to be remembered.
Hosted by Yorkshireman Stuart Blues, the show covers listener suggested cases from across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Each episode examines what happened, how the case unfolded, and the wider social, cultural, and historical context surrounding the crime.
The show covers British crime cases ranging from domestic abuse, coercive control, missing persons, policing failures, miscarriages of justice, and the long-term effects of violent crime on those left behind. With care, balance, and empathy, placing victims, not offenders, at the centre of every story, British Murders focuses on the human cost of murder and the lasting impact on families and communities.
Alongside case deep dives, the podcast features conversations with journalists, authors, campaigners, and criminal justice professionals about responsible true crime storytelling.
New episodes every Thursday!
