Why are females the biggest audience of true crime podcasts, despite the fact that most of these stories portray violence against women? In this documentary I speak with female true crime fans, podcast producers and academics to get to the bottom of the issue.

This documentary was created in part-fulfilment of a dissertation project for the MA Multimedia Journalism at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Guests include, Adam Lloyd, Chris Warburton, Dr Abby Bentham, Dr Kathryn Hughes, Maz Worswick and Laura Hamill.

Clips from the 'Beyond Reasonable Doubt?' and 'UK True Crime' podcasts were used with permission.

The music is 'Run From the Police' by Damma Beats, available on Epidemic Music.
