Welcome to Edition 107 of
0:02
All Kill and All Fill
0:05
a podcast with me, Rachel
0:07
Fairburn and Kiri
0:24
Pritchard-McLean. Just before we start, we'll do our usual
0:26
disclaimer. This isn't hero worship. We do this podcast
0:28
because of mutually interesting serial killers, as I'm saying,
0:30
we are doing this podcast. It stops us from
0:32
writing to them in prison. That's the best you've
0:34
done it in a while. Well done, Rachel. Well
0:36
done. Thank you. Thank you. Well done. I
0:39
haven't been wearing nice clothes for this moment. Can I take
0:41
that hair off you? Because otherwise I'll be looking at it
0:43
the whole time. It's attached.
0:46
Have you ever done that? Before now, I've been like, oh
0:48
my God, there's a hair there. And I'm like, I have
0:50
like one like blonde hair on my chest.
0:52
Yeah. It's the chin for me. It's never
0:54
ending. It's a full-time job. I
0:57
actually think women should get some sort of tax
0:59
rebate for having to do about time after
1:02
stunt. Yeah. Another invisible tax on our time,
1:04
right? Yeah. So I
1:06
am wearing, I feel quite, just being a bit
1:08
casual, you know? That's fine. A bit free and
1:10
easy. I've gone for a fun bomber. Yeah. Lovely,
1:12
lovely fun bomber. Oh, if you're listening
1:14
to this, I'm wearing a bomber jacket.
1:18
I'm not like, I've had a direction change. I've been
1:20
to the fella and I'm with a very fun bomber
1:22
these days. Now,
1:25
it'd be interesting to, because I reckon depending on your age, you will
1:27
have imagined people from
1:29
different parts of the world. Right? Island.
1:33
Yeah. Or other parts.
1:35
Other parts. That's as
1:37
much as we're doing on
1:39
that. We've just been
1:41
swiftly on. We've been having quite
1:44
middle-aged, middle-class conversation about, what
1:46
would you call them? I want to say food parcels, but that's not
1:48
what it is. That's aid. Mealboxes.
1:52
Mealboxes, yes. Because I
1:54
forayed into the mealbox because I
1:56
absolutely hate waste. Yes. And
1:58
yeah, some of the... them a delicious song
2:00
and I'm like come on. Yeah I
2:03
have started using I mean let's say
2:05
it Hello Fresh this isn't sponsored. I'm
2:07
not using that brand. But also you
2:10
know they would not send me the old one didn't
2:12
we? Oh yeah why not mention it? See
2:14
what else we can get. So I'm
2:17
using that and this is not a sponsored but I
2:20
decided on New Year's
2:22
Eve I do like a New Year's resolution and
2:25
I thought I'm gonna drink less which
2:27
I did last year and I've you know I've got
2:29
a couple of drinks this year that's it. I've changed
2:31
my relationship with alcohol because it had to happen. And
2:35
I thought I said right what am I gonna do? I'm gonna
2:37
cook. I'm gonna cook more and I'm gonna
2:40
learn how to cook and I've had I mean I've only
2:42
had two takeaways this year and that's because I've been in
2:44
hotels. Do you know what Tim
2:46
told me about this when I went over to yours and
2:48
the way he spoke
2:51
about it was how I would
2:53
talk about you
2:56
may or may not have a dog he
2:58
has paralyzed from his back so
3:00
his back legs don't like has a wheelchair and when I
3:02
talk about him I go do you know what he's doing
3:04
ever so well and he's just really happy and
3:07
no trouble to anyone and just you know
3:09
and that is how he was sort of talking about
3:11
you and he was like you know she wasn't she
3:13
wasn't the best of cooks before but he was like
3:16
she's done really well. Yeah. I'm so proud of her
3:18
she cooks loads of different things. I've made three cakes.
3:21
What you get cake in a HelloFresh box?
3:23
No I got the recipe online. Lemon
3:25
Drizzle. Now what a classic cake.
3:28
I've made two actually three lemon drizzles I've
3:30
made getting good at it. I think everyone's
3:32
sick of it now. Well Tim's sick of it now. And
3:35
I then I made a I
3:37
went a bit left field I did it with an orange you know
3:40
I did that. Orange Drizzle. Orange Drizzle.
3:42
Very good. Great like drab.
3:44
Now. Orange Drizzle. Very good.
3:47
I also the using
3:49
the meal kit has inspired
3:52
me. I'm like well everything's there I can
3:54
do this myself. Mm hmm. And it's
3:56
I've loved it. I've been really enjoying it. And the other day
3:58
I was trying to make a It's
4:01
even changed me getting takeaways because even I came
4:03
back late for my gig usually I've been straight
4:05
in my case I've not had a McDonald's this
4:07
year. Well, I think that is mad for me
4:09
because that is my thing. I love a Mac
4:12
is Not sponsored by McDonald's if
4:14
they do want to give me They
4:16
gave it to the Israeli army they might want to give
4:18
it to you. I love McDonald's. There you go. I don't care
4:21
now and the What
4:24
was it? Oh, yeah. Well, I'm a way home and I thought you know what?
4:26
I'm not gonna get a takeaway I'm
4:28
gonna go home and it might not seem a lot I'm
4:31
gonna make beans on toast and I'm gonna have tea in
4:33
the house and I'm not getting a takeaway Great
4:36
feel so much better. Um, I because as
4:38
I've discussed before the local Chinese name is
4:41
absolutely top-notch banging We
4:44
probably have it once a week I reckon and and
4:46
now it's like I've sort of mentally gone all let's
4:48
just have it once a month Which
4:50
is much better than fucking smashing and
4:52
then are the the mailbox I'm using and I
4:55
don't know I think I went for this one
4:57
because it felt like there was better vegan options.
4:59
So I'm using gusto and Got
5:01
a little discount code. Um, and
5:05
they they had a Chinese banquet option you
5:07
pay a little more sure Yeah, and it
5:09
was absolutely just so I had it last
5:11
night and I thought I nearly tricked myself
5:13
into having a takeaway here And
5:16
that's a nice feeling. Yes Absolutely,
5:19
but it's changed my you
5:21
know, the thing about me though is When
5:23
I say I'm gonna do something I do it. That's true.
5:25
I Say
5:28
it and I do it yet
5:30
a couple of runnettes I would say into quitting smoking
5:32

this meal box has helped with actually. It really

has, I'd say, changed my
8:05
life. And not just that. This really feels
8:08
like an advert now. Yeah, but it's not.
8:10
I feel better, you know. My periods are
8:12
regular, my skin is clearer. I'm
8:14
attracting luck from the universe. I've been going
8:16
to a new exercise class, S45. What
8:19
does that stand for? 45
8:23
minutes. I
8:25
don't know what the F stands for actually. Fitness 45
8:27
minutes? I don't know. It's American. And
8:30
I've been going to that and there's a lovely lady
8:32
that was talking to me in the changing rooms the
8:34
other day and I didn't catch her name. I hate
8:36
that. Oh no, she was dead nice.
8:38
She's a big fan. And she was
8:40
lovely and she was very nice. So if you're watching
8:42
this, hello, I didn't get your name but I'll see
8:44
you at F45. Fucking expensive,
8:46
I tell you. Really? Yeah, but
8:50
it is good. It's... you're
8:53
booking the class, it starts on time. No
8:55
pissing about. Bang! 45 minutes. Can
8:59
I interrupt briefly? How do you feel about this? One
9:01
of the nearest cinemas to me is in Carnarvon in
9:03
a gallery and they say
9:05
this... the film says... Right,
9:08
when are they next showing? What, Paul Fain's? 6.45.
9:12
That is what time the film starts, the trailers. If
9:14
you're watching me, I had to get there 15 minutes
9:16
before. So they were
9:18
like, if we say it's starting at 6.45, it's
9:20
starting at 6.45. Thank you, I love it. Really?
9:22
Yeah. Tell me... I hate it. You know, this
9:25
is something that I struggle with in... especially
9:27
like, you know, if you have a personal trainer
9:29
for a while like I did, I
9:32
loved the sessions but I don't
9:34
like chat. I find... I
9:36
find talking very difficult. And not big, you know,
9:39
lovely people that I've, you know, I've worked, you
9:41
know, trained with and stuff, but
9:43
I just... I'm like, I just want to get
9:45
in, do the exercise and go. And I've been
9:47
at six in the morning as well. Get me
9:49
in there, bang, do it. I've had two PTs
9:51
that I loved and would look forward to chatting
9:53
to, like Colin, love
9:56
Colin, miss him every day when I was in
9:58
Manchester and Blakely at the... Matrix doesn't
10:00
exist anymore. I think he's now a firefighter
10:03
and he was amazing and he just knew everything
10:05
about my life. I remember when I was deciding
10:07
whether to change agents or not or what to
10:09
do and then I'd broken up with someone and
10:11
then I got with someone else and he'd be
10:13
like, right, well what does... And he
10:15
knew everyone. He's like, what does Cass think of this? And
10:18
then he's like, well, there's a thing, you know, if
10:20
you go... I love that. I think you should go
10:22
with Chiggy, you know, there's just experience there. He just
10:25
knew everything about my life. I love him. He's so
10:27
great. And then I went to Jovino at J7 who
10:29
I think is like a viral sensation now. Yeah, I've
10:31
seen this guy. Yeah, he's amazing. So he was my
10:33
PT for ages and he's like... Yeah. He's... I
10:36
told you about... I
10:39
told you about my fella. So my fella was like, oh,
10:41
I'll go to the gym. And I was like, you know,
10:43
you should have a PT session like with me. You'll train
10:45
us both and... Because he'd never worked with a PT and
10:47
I was like, it's so helpful, even if you only work
10:49
with him for a bit and it'll sort of optimize what
10:52
you're doing. And so he did and then he just loved
10:54
training us both. But like everybody else, he just loves my
10:56
partner and not me. And
10:58
so he... My partner was like, oh, I really
11:00
want to, you know, just like do some boxing.
11:02
It turns out just like everything else again, he's
11:04
really naturally good at that. And then Jovino was
11:07
like, I know what we're going to do is...
11:09
When's your birthday? And so say this is
11:12
like in June and he was
11:14
like December and he's like, just on your birthday,
11:16
we're going to organize a fight for you. But
11:19
we'll just make it small, close ring. Kiri
11:21
can come down and watch. And he was like, that's your goal.
11:23
That's what you're going to work towards. And he's like, what do
11:25
you think? He says, I think I don't
11:27
want to be beaten up in front of my
11:30
girlfriend on my birthday. So
11:32
it never happened. He was like, it's my worst because
11:34
he was like, I don't want to fight in front
11:36
of... I just wanted to do boxing, which he is
11:39
like, yeah, I was gonna say brilliant at. But Jovino,
11:42
if you're out there, I know you're out there because I message you all the
11:44
time. And he also
11:46
trains our friend Cass from Taro. He
11:48
sent me a video the other time
11:50
and going, look at Cass, you
11:52
and Cass are gonna have a fight. You and Cass are
11:54
gonna have a fight. Get out of a boxing match. And
11:56
he wheels the camera and Cass is going, I haven't agreed
11:59
to any of it. But
12:02
I love Jovina, he's amazing, he's got a beautiful,
12:04
like a really big heart, he's a fantastic father
12:06
as well, he does so much for the community,
12:08
he does loads with knife crimes with young people
12:10
who are disillusioned, loads of...
12:12
Oh, he's trying to say he's encouraging him to
12:14
get into it. Yeah, he hands out knives on
12:16
the door, yeah. He trains loads of people, like
12:18
disabled people who haven't been welcoming in gyms and
12:20
stuff before, he's a really good egg. And
12:23
he does free, when
12:26
I went he was doing free classes
12:28
for people who had a cancer and
12:30
needed like rehab and physio. Nice guy,
12:32
like this, good. And
12:34
there was an older class as well that he
12:36
did free for people who, you know, the exercises
12:39
are sat down. And I remember he'd sort
12:41
of like be playing that with really misogynistic gangster
12:43
rap while I was in their training. And
12:46
then he'd switch over to the foundation's build me
12:48
up buttercup when all the old dears came in,
12:50
give them a cuddle and a kiss and they
12:52
were like, stop it Jovina, I
12:54
just come down from a flirt and to do this
12:56
with a weight, it's adorable. It just reminded me, we
12:58
will get on to this in a second. You just
13:00
reminded me. And so when I, there was an exercise
13:03
class I used to go to in Walthamstone, it stopped
13:05
now. But when the
13:07
trainer's really nice guy, he used to play,
13:09
you know, bring his own, what if
13:12
it wasn't for me, however, I do very
13:14
much like the rapper Slick Rick. And if you
13:16
want misogynistic rap, that is the rap to go
13:19
to, absolute love bit of Slick Rick. Now
13:21
we train, and it's all women in
13:24
this classroom, everyone's exercising. Anyway, he obviously
13:26
had this thing on shuffle and a
13:28
treat like a prostitute by Slick Rick
13:30
came on and I was doing something,
13:32
oh God, this is so good. Not
13:34
even the radio. I don't. And
13:36
he's going, well, it's going on. It's like, then
13:38
there's a male mouse dick. And I'm like, whoa,
13:40
then he just went, okay, then I was like,
13:43
nobody else. It's
13:47
all these women, misogynistic, absolute tune. I
13:53
don't know. Well, why don't we get you going? Shall
13:56
we talk about this? So again, you've, you've,
13:59
you've got to go. this I'm gonna yeah I've done
14:02
the bulk of the research on this
14:04
I'm gonna say now Rachel you're gonna
14:06
absolutely hate this there
14:09
is I think a few moments that you're
14:11
gonna find really maddening now this is a
14:13
serial killer I didn't really know anything about
14:15
appears a lots of lists of it's one
14:17
of Britain's most prolific and appears on lots
14:20
of lists of like here's a serial killer
14:22
that you've never heard of I think maybe
14:24
this is potentially a listener recommendation as well
14:27
I wanted our mailing mailable I will do that in a bit
14:29
we'll do that at the end yeah so
14:31
this also happens around the same
14:34
time as the Yorkshire
14:36
Ripper who killed fewer people but is
14:38
far more famous and in a similar
14:40
kind of area as well so we're
14:43
gonna be talking about Peter George Dinsdale
14:45
that's what he was born as but
14:47
also there's rumors that his name was
14:49
Peter Tredt as
14:51
well so but
14:53
then he does go on to change his name to Bruce
14:57
Lee he changes legs to Bruce Lee when
14:59
he's older and so his full
15:01
title his full sort of like name is Bruce
15:04
George Peter Lee I'll probably call him
15:06
Peter throughout this and he
15:09
was also known locally as Daft Peter
15:12
and also known as
15:14
the Selby Street arsonist until he was caught
15:16
so he was born July 31st 1960
15:19
in Manchester legend yeah his mum
15:21
Doreen so I'm gonna say this
15:23
whole sentence
15:27
but I feel like it's his two parts of
15:29
the sentence that don't fit together his mum Doreen
15:31
was a sex worker for
15:33
some reason I just don't imagine a Doreen being
15:36
a sex worker no no
15:38
shade to any Doreen's listening out no
15:40
I can't imagine a Doreen I imagine
15:42
really big knockers oh yeah just all
15:44
knocker yeah yeah just flipping them
15:46
down like that yeah just pulls
15:48
up a tabard or pulls
15:51
the tabard aside jiggles
15:53
a tick like that and then just puts it
15:55
back he goes do you want gravy and
15:59
his father was unknown and
16:01
when Peter was born he
16:03
had a lot of different
16:06
problems. So he had epilepsy for a start and
16:08
he also had the right side of his
16:10
body was affected by a congenital disease that
16:12
meant that he was partially paralyzed in his
16:15
right leg so he used to have a
16:17
limp and also his hand didn't work very
16:19
well on the right hand side and he
16:21
used to often like hold it across himself.
16:24
And so it basically didn't function as well. I must
16:26
have mentioned this before, do you know how I sleep
16:28
like that? Do you? With a
16:30
microphone? No because that's how I used
16:32
to hold my toy. Oh
16:36
really? Yeah and I had a
16:38
toy, I
16:40
used to have my
16:42
toy, well for Willa we've mentioned it before, in
16:47
my sort of twenties and
16:50
because of that I still sleep
16:52
as well. Really? Do you sleep on your
16:54
front or your back like that? Either, well
16:56
I change positions sleeping so I think
16:58
my back would do that. Really? Oh
17:01
I'm sorry. I know it's very sweet that you
17:03
slept with him through his twenties but
17:05
I think when you got to your twenties why not do it through
17:07
your thirties as well? It's not less embarrassing
17:09
is it? Yeah but it's
17:12
because I got a boyfriend that seemed like
17:14
an actual man. Right okay. That
17:16
I then thought, oh he's a big man I
17:18
don't want him thinking I'm a big man. Okay
17:20
yeah he don't work for Willy's watch. Yeah he's
17:22
well exact. I get ya. So
17:25
yeah he had sort of like
17:27
his arm was sort of underdeveloped
17:30
and his mum would frequently refer
17:33
to him as a freak. So
17:35
Doreen not the most sympathetic mum
17:37
out there. I know it's not.
17:39
No it's really unfortunate but to
17:42
be honest with you that's a benefit my mum
17:44
would say. I don't think
17:46
this is abuse I just think it's
17:48
having no... Your mum would say it
17:50
like for doing something you'd freak. Yeah
17:52
for nothing not because you have like
17:54
multiple physical disabilities and epilepsy. Well yeah
17:56
we won't pick the up ones from
17:58
Barkavale tram station. There's a bridge that
18:01
I was just waiting, you know, minding me own
18:03
business just a few years ago She
18:06
pulled up in cash went waiting stood there
18:08
like some sort of disaffected youth from the 1950s Hello
18:17
His unsympathetic mother Had
18:19
him for the first six months of his life, then
18:21
he goes and moves and lives with his gran Oh,
18:24
this is sounding quite a lot like you absolute freak
18:26
born in Manchester, lived with a nana and
18:31
He spent quite a lot of time splitting in
18:33
and out of sort of like His
18:36
family is mum and his grandma but
18:38
also the care system as well So
18:40
he was who's looked after child for
18:43
a while was in children's homes And
18:45
this is during like this 60s and
18:47
70s when children's homes were particularly I
18:49
think difficult violent places to be and
18:51
a lot of exploitation. In fact during
18:53
that time he gets sort of Recruited
18:56
into being I don't know what the right phrase for
18:58
this is. So sorry if this is disrespectful But but
19:01
like being a rent boy basically, so
19:04
that is where his relationship in that particular Say
19:08
trade but World
19:12
let's say start so he's
19:15
three and he moves back in with his mum.
19:17
His mum has now got husband and it's
19:20
a quite an unstable marriage, but It's
19:24
like the closest he has to a sort of settled home.
19:26
He goes off to school School
19:28
he goes to his four kids with additional needs
19:30
as well He's
19:32
actually 16 his IQ comes out at 68 Which
19:38
technically means that he has a piece you
19:40
put yeah, that's exactly what it is If
19:42
you are listening that is but exactly what
19:44
both of us think about that Absolutely.
19:47
No retractions on our side. That is
19:49
100% what we say. It's a yeah
19:54
Yes, he allowed I feel bad for
19:56
him already. Well, there's quite a lot to feel
19:58
sorry for him about Yeah, he
20:00
was sort of he was bullied an
20:02
awful lot He was known
20:05
in the area for loving bonfires and fires
20:07
and he he once said to Sean Lister
20:09
who will come back into this Story was
20:11
a local lad and similar age to him
20:13
He was like I want
20:16
to burn that timber yard down and then they
20:18
had sort of set a little fire nearby And
20:21
then a few weeks later the timber yard
20:23
burned down. So Sean was like, well, that was obviously
20:26
Daffy Peter as they called it. Is that where
20:28
he manifested it? Oh, yes, sometimes she just got out
20:30
of the universe Now he's nine years
20:32
of age. Do you remember what you're doing when you
20:34
were nine? Oh That me
20:36
bike I had a
20:39
green bike that said sonnet on
20:41
it on it. Yeah, I don't know and
20:43
I'd be riding me bike around the park Well
20:46
run the cloth round the cloth. Yeah running in
20:49
and out. There was back door. Oh Oh Drink
20:52
a juice. Yeah, go back out go into
20:55
the swimming bath. That's what I was doing
20:57
swimming that oh, yeah They're the ones that's
20:59
now like a college. Yeah. Oh my god.
21:01
They would listen a parade bath was fucking
21:04
Mingan It was it's Victorian and they actually
21:06
had best baths up there So
21:09
people even when I used to go you could pay to
21:11
have a bath It up
21:13
on the top bit is that
21:15
because we wouldn't have them. Oh, yeah So
21:18
that building so we used to go swimming
21:20
there that that's been there every
21:22
single day. There's some holidays That's why we learned to
21:24
swim as kids It
21:26
was Disgusting. I Don't
21:30
really like going swimming and I think it's cuz of our
21:32
parade bass Gritty floor. That's
21:35
what I remember like the floor was
21:37
gritty on your feet And because
21:39
it was such an old building some of the
21:41
tiles in the pool were up. Oh In
21:43
your toe Maybe a plaster
21:45
floating pasture. This is every council pulled
21:47
on everything. Yeah, but it was just
21:50
so old and asked me teacher mr
21:53
Mr. Delaney was his name. I
21:55
think Irish guy. I remember
21:58
there was a cockroach It
22:00
was just, what? Like this,
22:03
back in the pool in one of the
22:05
labs went, oh, there's a
22:07
cockroach here, sir. And he went, help
22:10
it out. Where's your Christianity? I
22:14
was like, hmm. I just
22:16
thought everything about it was so horrible. It was just
22:19
sort of run down building. And
22:22
then I think I spent all my time in there
22:24
as a kid, like, horrible
22:28
pool. It was just horrible. I
22:31
have, this is going to be an absolute clang
22:33
now, guys. But
22:36
I didn't. Oh, no, actually, this is I bought this
22:38
from my last tour. This is my treat to myself.
22:40
I'm a little hot tub. I've always,
22:42
lots of us have got hot tubs. Not everybody.
22:44
I understand that. But, you know, like, I've
22:47
got hot tubs. You allowed nice things. I don't really
22:49
fucking apologize to these people. Someone will be like, you
22:51
hot tub owning motherfucker. Well, that's shit. Basically, it was
22:53
the last time I was in the store. You were
22:55
allowed to work out and you were allowed nice things.
22:58
And if people got a problem with that, they need to fucking
23:00
grow up. Can you go to come to her if you've got
23:02
a problem? Actually, I'd like that. So, yeah, I've
23:04
got a hot tub and then lastly, it's a
23:06
wood fired one. Right. So because it's better for the
23:09
environment. Oh, fuck off.
23:11
Actually, that's the environment. It also heats up way quicker, which
23:14
is one of the reasons why it's better. So you take
23:16
like I had a blow up one that my fellow got.
23:18
And that was like it took 24 hours. Because
23:21
he's a bomber. Yeah. This
23:24
one is a couple of hours. So last year,
23:26
all the like the first time we'd used it,
23:28
we set it up in fact for Valentine's Day,
23:30
you know this, don't you? So
23:33
I'd had it for ages and it had been like
23:35
that. It hadn't been fitted right. All this kind of
23:37
stuff. So eventually it gets put in place on Valentine's
23:39
Day. And we're like, well, the week
23:41
before and we're like, let's go in it. Because I
23:43
had it since October. I'd ordered it in January
23:46
and they were like, it'll come in May. And then it didn't
23:48
come till October, which is not a great time to be in
23:50
a hot tub in Wales. So
23:52
Valentine's Day, let's get in the hot tub.
23:56
It just takes like ages to fill it up. So we
23:59
can't go in it. in on Valentine's
24:01
Day, fine. Also he went
24:04
and bought a fucking hosepipe, it wasn't long enough because it's
24:06
quite far away from the house, well we've got it. So
24:08
he set, I've shown you this video, he set
24:10
up a sort of
24:12
Heath Robinson affair that was the
24:15
hosepipe going like across the yard
24:17
of the farm and then going
24:19
into some guttering that he'd found
24:22
onto some other guttering held up by
24:24
step-lada into the thing. The guttering
24:26
was filthy, so he just filled it up with
24:28
brown, like soapy water and
24:31
so I was like what, this does not
24:33
feel like a nice thing for Valentine's Day.
24:35
Ruining things. Yeah also the cat walked on
24:37
the guttering knocked it all down immediately, nightmare.
24:39
Anyway so he finally set it up, it's
24:41
a while later it's spring, I've got loads of
24:43
children in my life, my friends, kids come over all
24:45
the time. So I set up
24:47
the hot tub for them, it's lovely and warm
24:49
and I was like great. Of course no child
24:52
showers before they get in it, of course they
24:54
just like snot go down their face, of course
24:56
they're just like filthy, some of them are teenagers
24:58
anyway so they're not great at keeping themselves clean.
25:01
By the time I got in it I was like this
25:03
is how fucking Covid starts, it was absolutely
25:06
disgusting like soup of debris, also they're walking
25:08
across the farmyard just like tiptoeing, so like
25:10
their filthy feet were getting bent. So now
25:12
I want to be like, you've got a
25:14
shower before you go in it, but then
25:16
obviously I don't want to be like oh
25:18
your mum's friend who makes a shower before
25:21
we do stuff. Look, sure hot tub will
25:23
be all rules, look kids ruin
25:25
everything, you know, little
25:28
petri dishes of stuff
25:30
and I do like children but you know
25:32
it's like when someone goes oh do you want a
25:34
cake that my kids make? Absolutely fucking no, god no.
25:36
I do not want that with its filthy hands as
25:39
you're picking its beak. And Rob
25:41
Rouse has got a really brilliant bit where he
25:43
talks about his little boy and having like he's
25:46
either picking his bum, no he's
25:49
either picking his nose, touching the end of his
25:51
willy or touching a piece of cheese and like
25:53
his finger just moves between all of us. It's
25:56
really fun, Rob Rouse is one of the best
25:58
comics ever and a good act. one
26:00
of the nicest people in comedy. Rob Rowan.
26:03
I messaged him actually, we spoke about this and I
26:05
said, you know, Rachel and I, I think it was
26:07
something I was gonna say, Rachel and I would say,
26:09
if we find out that you're a bad one, it's
26:12
just over. Like you're such a good egg. He was
26:14
like, oh thanks, that means loads. Anyway, I'm DJing kids'
26:16
parties, so I've gotta go back to doing forward roles
26:18
in this church hall. Anyway,
26:21
so he has, yeah, an IQ, six days,
26:24
burns down this timber yard. He's nine years
26:26
old. He burns a shopping
26:28
precinct down and he causes, so bearing
26:30
in mind, this is 1969, 16,000 pounds
26:32
worth of damage. Wow.
26:37
Oh, 17, sorry, 17,000 pounds worth of damage
26:39
back then. So Christ knows what that is
26:41
equivalent to now. And I really
26:43
thought that would play a bigger part. Like he would
26:45
be, I guess you wouldn't be prosecuted as a kid,
26:47
but you know, there would be some kind of repercussions.
26:50
He said he used to get a fire
26:52
on the mind and his fingers would tingle
26:54
until he set fire to it. He
26:58
later goes on and later I have to say that fire
27:00
is his master. And he quotes the Bible and saying, a
27:02
man cannot have team masters. And they're like,
27:04
oh, so who's your master? And he's like, fire,
27:06
which I think is embarrassing. Wow. Now
27:09
he, they sort of say, oh,
27:11
you know, the reason he set fire to all those
27:13
things is because he was frustrated. And at first I
27:15
was like, oh yeah, I get it, being, you know,
27:18
disabled person is very frustrating in a world that is
27:20
absolutely ableist. No, it's because he wanted to be a
27:22
trawler man. So because he
27:24
wasn't- He lived in London. It seems like
27:26
a tragedy. And he lived
27:28
in Manchester. He does move to Hull at some point.
27:31
It gets worse. But yeah, he wanted to be a
27:33
trawler man, which is the hardest way of life there
27:35
is. Yeah. And he couldn't do
27:37
it because of his disabilities. And so yes. Now,
27:41
everyone locally felt quite sorry for him. This
27:43
is actually one of the ways that he
27:45
gets away with it for so long is
27:47
that he, like so many disabled people, is
27:49
massively underestimated. He is
27:51
bullied. Everybody refers to him as
27:53
deaf to Peter, including like teachers,
27:56
adults, friends. Well, there's a lot
27:58
of Peters. You've got to- He.
28:00
Got into the thing with he got a
28:02
the thing, William, yet you need so I
28:04
would is, although thought that Malley pay and
28:06
pay only pay. Few years
28:08
obsessive birth late and he's A. He's a
28:10
loner as well and he's a grass to
28:13
though. he has loads a job he works
28:15
at when is a teenager? A local speedway.
28:17
ah so this will tell you where this
28:19
happen them. Bellevue. Oh.
28:22
What a before he must have been. A
28:24
Stiletto Speedway is as far as an idea.
28:26
What is a speedway? A Don't trot. But.
28:29
It does sound a he was. it was
28:31
a doctorate and the speedway and a circus
28:33
spell the I used to be so well
28:35
actually Bellevue with the same pot and a
28:37
zoo for her back on. it was like.
28:40
Mom. My mom said it was like
28:42
having. A. Pretty much in
28:44
the in Blackpool plus beach on your
28:46
doorstep? that's wait. what is it All
28:48
goes to stay. Close.on
28:50
on on the line. Clear elephants. another
28:52
signal. Elephants All kinds of people were
28:55
troubled from all over Britain to go
28:57
to a healthy place. You got hit
28:59
with a huge thing but speedway. A
29:01
it's like him. most bikes oh I
29:03
know. yeah yeah yeah so you must
29:05
be It would have value and. He
29:08
of work to the speedway track he worked
29:10
our local pig market do know that one
29:12
is all. Of. His up
29:14
to seven years and set up a puppy
29:16
deflecting. Got. Ah
29:18
you are of about said that
29:21
shudder Now his last it had
29:23
is there a specific picked up
29:25
get it swat. He also would
29:27
baby sit for local kids and.
29:30
But. it was a bit strange or that
29:32
as well what sorry came home apparently and
29:35
he said then oh i forgot to mention
29:37
this is my son and he's like the
29:39
like pay is like eleven or twelve is
29:41
point and this is little boy this with
29:43
him and they're like it's not his son
29:46
and his eye is my son i forgot
29:48
to mention in the like emmys not isn't
29:50
another he's block like just like even if
29:52
it potentially was a son that we didn't
29:55
know about like the race is wrong and
29:57
see a he brought home this it'll than
29:59
hope I mean, it never tells you in
30:01
all the, I tried to find out what happened
30:03
to that little boy. I don't know. I just
30:05
hope he returned. This guy's mental. Yes. So he,
30:07
at 19, he changes his name to Bruce Lee.
30:15
And his, the name he goes by is Bruce
30:18
George Peter Lee. And he, that name is
30:21
in there because of his stepdad. I
30:23
can't remember if it's the George or the Peter
30:25
moving it around. Because he's Peter George Dinsdale. He's
30:28
moving it around, he's attributing to his stepdad and
30:30
also he's obsessed with Bruce Lee. Now,
30:33
I'm going to kind of start in reverse. I'm going
30:35
to start with the crime that leads to him getting
30:37
caught. So this
30:39
is where we meet the Hastings. Now
30:42
they're, so basically
30:45
December 4th, 1979. The
30:48
Hastings live on a street called Selby Street in
30:50
a very deprived area. Next door to
30:52
them is a drug dealer. Like there's a, you know, it's
30:54
just a lot of, it's quite a spicy area basically. This
30:56
is in Hull. This is in Hull now. Yeah.
30:59
So at this point, Peter is 19 years of age.
31:03
Now Edith, the mum, she wakes up,
31:06
she's 34 years old, she's got seven kids. And
31:09
she wakes up and she just has a weird feeling. Her
31:12
three daughters are staying with friends and
31:14
family over the way. So
31:16
there's three girls, Angelina, Viola and Sophie, who
31:19
is a twin of one of the
31:21
boys, are staying somewhere else. Now the four
31:23
boys are at home. So
31:25
they are, in fact, there's, there is
31:27
actually five boys. There's an older boy as well. So
31:29
these are the seven kids that are in the house.
31:32
So that's Charlie, he's 15 years old. Charlie
31:34
will become very important to this. Paul, who's
31:36
12, Thomas, who's nine and Peter,
31:38
who's eight and is the twin of Sophie.
31:40
So they, she wakes up and she's like,
31:42
something's not right. She goes to check on
31:45
the kids. The house is
31:47
ablaze. It's on fire. She
31:49
wakes up Charlie, the eldest, a 15 year old boy
31:52
and says, go and like fetch Thomas
31:54
because Thomas, one of the kids, he has
31:56
muscular dystrophy. So he won't be able to get
31:59
out of the house. At without
32:01
any assistance anyway. So. This
32:03
flames every why. she starts to really
32:05
panic the she can't get to the
32:07
kids and in this in her panic
32:10
see screaming screaming Charlie grub says and
32:12
he just opened the window and pushes
32:14
or out because it's just fun of
32:16
basically make her skates as quickly as
32:18
you com and she's worrying so much
32:20
so she falls off out the out
32:23
the window. She enjoys her uncle he
32:25
buys okay I'm and so he goes
32:27
back. Charlie good but said get pizza
32:29
to get pole and who has been
32:31
sharing a room with Thomas. Because of
32:33
his and. Impairments: Is bit it
32:35
is states him and his mum. Now
32:38
because the window was open from
32:40

33:33
There's a guy called Detective
33:35
Superintendent Ronald. I'll do
33:37
a said us a Sega Sega
33:39
less Sega. Or. Eaten on metres
33:41
from the know. I know because of
33:43
the Nintendo gowns. Oh yeah yeah we
33:46
we use I guess I have lived
33:48
I drive may enjoy a fuckin sonic
33:50
yet Sonic and Adelson up sleep dog
33:52
shit enjoy a little thin spots I
33:54
didn't like a didn't like Alex on
33:56
the Mario the here and you get
33:59
low on. I think I got
34:01
a DS or as he called. I
34:03
think it's a DS, did you? Yeah. It's
34:08
very hard for me to find a game, to be honest.
34:11
Really? Yeah, I mean Mario Kart
34:13
is not for me. It's very expensive. So I've
34:15
got Garfield Racing. That
34:17
sounds adorable. And it's 99p, it's very
34:19
good. All the characters are there, John,
34:21
Ody, and Normal. I don't
34:23
know what I'm telling you this, but you
34:26
know Normal? No. Do
34:29
you know Normal? Is that the love interest of
34:31
John? No. What
34:33
is Normal? Normal is a kitten.
34:35
He's a self-proclaimed world's cutest kitten.
34:38
Right. And Garfield hates
34:40
Normal. What colour is Normal? He hates Gray.
34:43
Okay. He hates him. Well, this is
34:45
the reason, I don't know why this is over with it. When
34:47
Normal is introduced to the Gaffi in the comics,
34:49
Garfield's like this. And John's like,
34:52
he's funny, he's like, meet Normal.
34:54
I'm not just saying he's not the funniest
34:56
thing. I don't know why. Because
34:59
he hates him. He's
35:02
like, I don't know why
35:04
he's so funny. Right, that's
35:06
the joke. Yeah, that's it. He's just so funny. Oh, he's
35:08
on the hand. No, he's just funny. It's
35:10
not meant to be funny, but I find it
35:12
just so funny because he's like, Garfield hates him.
35:16
And he's like, meet Normal. Normal's like...
35:20
Okay. So, I don't know
35:22
why I make them up, but every so often in my own head,
35:25
I just say in my own head, meet Normal. Okay.
35:29
Well, now that's in my head. He's just little things
35:31
that make you laugh that just
35:33
stay with you, you know? We need to open a window
35:35
in here. What's the thing? I just
35:37
find Garfield very amusing. Same as Snoop. Have
35:39
you been eating the little sachets from shoeboxes
35:41
that they do not eat on them? That's
35:45
crystal meth in it. Is it? Silica
35:47
gel, isn't it? I just made that up. But I
35:49
don't know why. He just, you
35:51
know, I'm gonna find it and show you. Okay,
35:54
well, I know it will be underwhelming. Maybe, I don't
35:56
know if we were allowed to do that, but maybe
35:58
Owen, with the podcast. watching it can
36:00
get up a picture of the exact still
36:03
but I sincerely I think we'll get sued.
36:08
That is what you're laughing at. Oh
36:11
his face. Yeah but it's like John
36:16
thinks oh get up
36:18
and get up and Gavin's like I'm not. No I
36:21
understand why it's meant to be funny yeah it just is.
36:23
I just find it really funny and I don't know why
36:26
and I can't explain it. You
36:28
know it is it's something wholesome that I find
36:30
funny. It's very adorable and you're now going to
36:32
get loads of Garfield stuff brought to
36:34
you at a live show. I love Garfield if that's I've
36:36
got a Garfield night dress
36:38
and he's leaning like whatever he doesn't
36:40
care he just loves lasagna and hates
36:43
Mondays. Right
36:45
detective superintendent Ronald
36:48
Sager he arrives
36:51
at the house there's a big
36:53
investigation going on the fire service
36:55
are investigating they find two spent
36:58
matches by the letterbox and they
37:00
could smell paraffin as well. Now
37:02
they realize that near to the letterbox but not
37:05
underneath it was a pool of paraffin because obviously
37:07
the house has gone up you can't you can't
37:09
tell if there was paraffin there. So they were
37:11
like okay this looks like it is arson it
37:14
looks like whoever had like a thing
37:16
to pour it in set it down there and
37:18
came over and that's what the matches are for.
37:21
So they were like this is
37:23
deliberate because there are a lot
37:25
of house fires at the time.
37:27
Yeah there were loads so people
37:29
were incredibly flammable clothing stuff didn't
37:31
have to be flame retardant they
37:34
lived in houses with open fire like
37:36
open fires. Do you remember those night
37:39
dresses that uh
37:41
non-garfield ones that had that were made of
37:43
that really silky sort of fabric and they'd
37:45
often have like a cartoon or something on
37:47
it I had one or two frogs in
37:49
about or something but then one
37:51
day they just all disappeared because it was it
37:54
was realized that it the kids would I
37:57
remember that thing of like but my parents would like
37:59
I remember and being like don't stand that close to
38:01
the fire. Yeah. My sister. Like,
38:03
oh, still give me the 90 that is
38:05
a death. Yeah. My sister had the, her
38:08
coat melted. She was standing
38:10
in front of the fire and I'm going
38:12
to school all morning and she's on the little. And
38:14
then, you know, and your mum panics. So the back
38:17
of the coat was like melting. And
38:19
I got bollocks for it. What, but you know what
38:21
a parent panic? Yeah. And they're like,
38:24
oh, you, you see what you've done?
38:27
I didn't know this was happening. Like, oh,
38:30
I wasn't watching you little shit.
38:32
You know, that kind of thing. Yeah. There's
38:35
this place anger. It needs to go somewhere. Yeah.
38:37
Yeah. And I'm picking for me.
38:39
That's why I know. Although my mother, as we
38:41
said this before, denies the fact that she's too
38:43
hitles. But I don't mind that. I think I
38:45
would have deserved it on occasion. You
38:48
want to hit your kid, you go for it. No. You can't let me hit
38:50
your kid for it. Yeah. Oh, this is nice.
38:54
It's like being on Goodmoor. No, what's it called? GB
38:57
News. Hit your kids.
38:59
Hit your kids. Hit your kids. Actually, no. Let
39:01
Nick Ferrara hit your kids. I
39:03
don't actually think he's on GB News. No, that's LBC, isn't it?
39:06
So yeah, dad, oh,
39:09
I should say dad Tommy was also the
39:11
detective superintendent, Roger Sagar, was like, I refer to
39:14
him as a lovable rogue. He had quite a
39:16
lot of affection for this family, even though when
39:18
they said there's a fire at the hasty, there
39:20
was about 20 other families in Hull called hasty.
39:22
And they all knew exactly which house it
39:24
was. So they were very known to the
39:27
police, let's say. Well, they're a large family,
39:29
aren't they? Yeah, but around this time, families
39:31
would be that big. And Tommy was in
39:33
doing five months for burglary of a sports
39:36
club with his eldest son, because it's really
39:38
nice to bond with the eldest. That's
39:40
lovely. It's fishing or burglar, isn't it? Learning
39:43
from his dad. So apparently,
39:45
the family used to run riot around
39:47
the place. Things that they did,
39:49
and this includes Charlie, the
39:52
heroic Charlie who died trying to rescue
39:54
his brothers, Was
39:57
they would piss through people's worsted boxes. Come
40:00
on, they would rob kids of
40:02
their pocket money and they would
40:05
and just take a minute cs
40:07
shit on their doors. that. Which.
40:10
I have never heard of. As
40:12
a slight a phrasing it don't
40:15
show on your doorstep but it's
40:17
like or-on any one specific as
40:19
the big unless this is an
40:21
old custom that maybe the whole
40:23
thing yang on people's doorsteps. Yeah,
40:25
burn in someone's earlier Medusa, a
40:27
cat does rape and society Burma,
40:29
the gabi of Lampson and yeah
40:31
said they were known as big
40:34
as Tricky Fun loving every street.
40:36
got family this turkey right And
40:38
now the this release of I
40:40
Can. Answer: That means it was us. Know
40:42
away now we will move very well with
40:45
that will behavior As a you very very
40:47
well behaved and. So they
40:49
they sought investigation and that runnels.
40:51
I guess. As never before have
40:53
I encountered such hatred and dislike
40:56
for a family. Why this case
40:58
becomes incredibly hard to investigate Because
41:00
everybody has a motive for burning
41:02
the house down on the strain.
41:04
How I mean that's horrible. Really
41:07
mean for talking about air. That's.
41:10
That's and. Happen to anybody else
41:13
is awful. Things happen and it's It's
41:15
terrific. This three. Kids. Dead
41:17
at a becomes book the So journalists
41:19
to send them place Dillard's of in
41:21
today's I'm because it's always a big
41:23
tragedy and every neighbor they states it
41:25
was like that Hitler had it come
41:27
Il or other a carried it it
41:29
and so then the story becomes it's
41:31
called story of Hate and loads of
41:33
these newspapers run a bit about how
41:35
this is a community that case each
41:37
other and because of this thing with
41:39
a hasty some season. Note: basically too
41:41
many people in the neighborhood with a grudge for
41:44
that to give any leads one point they saw
41:46
it might have been like a murder at the
41:48
orient express thing spoiler alert coming guys were one
41:50
of them brought the much as one of them
41:53
brought the powerful what of and chess they thought
41:55
of the whole street was in on it at
41:57
some point because everyone dislike them and there's
42:00
all sorts of weird sort of stories
42:02
popping up. Like there's the whole, the
42:04
whole paper, whole daily news is, runs
42:06
a story about someone apparently is on
42:09
a flyover which looks over the street and is looking
42:11
down at the street when the when the buildings on
42:13
fire and goes. I'm
42:16
no sorry, there's a kid on a bicycle looking on
42:18
the flyover and watching the house
42:20
burn. They're like maybe it was a kid on the bike and then they finally
42:22
kid on the bike. It wasn't the kid on the bike. And
42:25
apparently that same flyover that looks over the house,
42:28
the day Charlie died, there was
42:30
an old man up there saying
42:33
one down four to go. Yeah,
42:36
which is a lot. These people are horrible. But
42:38
then they fired him and it's just sort of
42:41
a mad old man who wasn't to do with
42:43
anything. I mean, you can be an
42:45
horrible isn't a crime, isn't it? I mean, yeah,
42:47
no, no, it isn't. Now they interview them and
42:49
Edith says, well, now you mention it like, yeah,
42:51
we didn't get on more with our neighbours. But
42:54
a few months before this fire, a letter
42:57
was put through our door. It was really
42:59
aggressive. And it did threaten us. They
43:02
go back to the house inexplicably one of the
43:04
rooms that hasn't burned is the one with the
43:06
letter in. So this letter is still intact. I
43:09
would love to read this aloud for you. Because
43:11
this gives them what
43:13
they appear to like a big,
43:16
what's the word lead. So a
43:19
family of fucking rubbish. We
43:21
all hate you. You should all
43:24
live on an island brackets, Devil's Island,
43:27
guys brackets, but I'm not kidding. But
43:29
I promised you a bomb. And by
43:31
hell, I'm not kidding. Why don't you
43:33
just flip while you've got the chance?
43:35
If we can't get you out normally, then
43:38
we'll busted well bomb you out. And
43:40
that is too good for
43:42
you. Very
43:44
full on, right? So
43:47
what they do, well, they get the handwriting samples
43:49
from all the local community and they find
43:51
that is someone who's living about three doors
43:53
down from the hasty is
43:55
a woman. She is in her 80s. She's
43:58
a churchgoer. And one of
44:00
her friends was being bullied by the hasty kid.
44:02
Wow. And she sent that in. And
44:05
she hadn't committed a crime, other than she
44:07
sent them basically a poison pen letter because
44:10
she said, I'm just sick of those kids
44:12
picking on my friend. Wow. But
44:14
yeah. Just making a mind. Yeah. And
44:18
she was like, no, those kids were horrible. It's,
44:21
I've never heard of anything like, well, the closest I've
44:23
come to is from, I've got a
44:25
friend who, you
44:28
know, that, you know, in some schools now,
44:30
obviously as adults, we can look back and see lots
44:32
of kids who behave badly. There's a lot going on
44:34
at home and stuff. But in school, there's usually one
44:36
like cunt, right? Yeah. So
44:39
someone I know the cunt of their
44:41
school died. And the
44:43
teacher was on the news. And normally they
44:45
go very, you know, popular, well-liked. And
44:48
the teacher on the news are like, obviously,
44:50
tragedy and the teacher went, his
44:53
friends liked him. And
44:56
that was like all that they could say. It was
44:58
like, yeah, his friends liked him. Yeah. Well,
45:01
it happened to someone that went
45:03
to my school that had similar
45:06
thing happened. Really? And
45:08
when no one can find anything good to say about them. Yeah.
45:11
Not a...awful. Not a nice... I
45:14
feel like that is a job, right? I
45:17
feel like I could do that for a
45:19
job and be like, has someone
45:21
you know, the cunt just died and you need
45:23
someone to say something nice about it? I reckon
45:25
I could throw out those plasties. I think, you
45:27
know, I'll do it when you die. Every word.
45:29
She was kind. She was loyal. She
45:32
was supportive. She was loving. And
45:34
she was a friend to all the children and
45:37
all the mothers. I thought I said this
45:39
before about funerals. Stop me if I
45:41
told you. Because my dad,
45:43
I was talking about my dad. I said
45:45
to him, God, you
45:47
know, when you die, obviously I
45:49
don't want that to happen, but when you die, like, you never tell us
45:51
anything. We don't know anything about you. I wouldn't say it at your funeral.
45:53
He was a bus driver and a man. We
45:58
don't have any stories. He's gonna BTK
46:01
you, he's gonna like just play the DVD.
46:03
Oh, you know, I would
46:05
be so surprised if he did something like
46:07
that. Of course you would, it's your dad.
46:10
But he just never tells us anything he never talks about. His
46:14
life. He doesn't talk about
46:16
things he enjoys.
46:20
I don't think he likes music. What music are
46:22
you gonna play? Just bang it
46:24
at the Welsh national anthem. Well, that's the
46:26
only music he does like, I think. We
46:29
did, for my dad we did a memorial
46:31
and the amazing Christopher Hughes, who's come on
46:33
this podcast and talked to, you know, the
46:35
guy who's a pathologist. He
46:37
did the service, like what service? He
46:40
wrote the eulogy for my dad. And
46:43
my dad, I did this like interview with my dad
46:45
a couple of years ago now about his life. It's like three
46:47
hours long. So I sent it to Chris and he listened to
46:49
all and he wrote this amazing thing. He
46:51
did it in Welsh and English. It was so beautiful.
46:54
So we're in this like memorial hall, so it's like not religious.
46:58
And like it was such a beautiful
47:00
kindness for Chris to do it for me as well,
47:02
like to have a friend doing it was so stunning.
47:04
And he's like such a good orator. So
47:06
I felt really happy that he was doing it. And it finally
47:08
gets us to like, okay, we're gonna, everyone's sort of settled now.
47:12
We'll kind of start. So Chris goes up in front
47:14
of everyone and sort of bilingually says thank you very
47:16
much for coming and explains it like, you know, and
47:18
so you want as Welsh speaker, but I'm gonna switch
47:20
between the languages and he's doing that. And
47:23
it's very sort of obviously somber and kind of profound and
47:25
that exact moment, the guy we entered the hall that we
47:28
hired for the hall from. So
47:30
looking at this thing, it's like a proscenium art
47:32
stage at one of the side jaws, genuinely like
47:34
fucking acorn antiques. He comes with a tray of
47:36
mugs like this shaking through and Chris turned around
47:39
and looked at him, but just like sort of
47:41
carried on a little bit louder. But he like
47:43
shook his way across the hall. It was fucking
47:45
nuts. And obviously it's really, really funny. But it
47:47
was fucking that I'm like, yeah, obviously.
47:49
And we've waited ages. Yeah, really laughed. And
47:52
then also my partner made the most. We've
47:55
got some lovely little videos of my
47:57
dad and my partner cut together. a
48:00
gorgeous little, sort of like, almost
48:02
like a narrative from all the little clips of
48:04
my dad saying sort of funny things and doing
48:06
stuff. And it was really beautiful. And so he
48:08
goes to play it and what have you done?
48:11
It just wasn't played. So Chris says, Oh, and
48:13
I think we've got a little video now if you
48:15
want. And so and then it goes and it's just
48:17
awkward. And then it's like, so it's on
48:20
the screen and then it like minimizes and you can just
48:22
hit click and do different files and he just turns round
48:24
and goes, it's what he would have wanted. And
48:28
then it works fine. But yeah,
48:30
it was, but stuff like that does happen
48:33
at funerals, I think. Oh, I thought it was my
48:35
grand funeral. They played the wrong song.
48:38
And the humanist, the poor guy,
48:40
you could just see he's like, Oh,
48:43
fuck, kind of thing. And
48:46
at the end of the service, you could tell it was like, I'm
48:50
gonna get ball at day. But it was like, I
48:52
thought it was funny. It's fine. Yeah, it is. It's
48:54
like, you've got one chance to get it right. Yeah,
48:56
it's so tough. But you know, it's just
48:59
is how it is, isn't it? In fact, John
49:01
Stanfield was asking about your room, your thing
49:03
about about you yesterday and saying,
49:05
it's very nicely about your dad. Oh,
49:08
I remember meeting him. He's very, very
49:11
nice about him. Everyone's fucking them because he was
49:13
always at gigs. Yeah, which is really nice that
49:15
people have memories of him. Yeah. And
49:19
fucking that guy. Oh, and then also this
49:21
guy rented the hall from who fucking acorn
49:23
antique to out. He goes at the end,
49:26
he went, guys, a very good speaker, wasn't
49:28
he? I still yeah, I said he does
49:30
a lot. So he said, what does he do them for
49:32
a job? I said, well, he's a presenter. So he's also
49:34
head of the Anglesey Druids. So he does lots of things.
49:36
I was like, I know he was what head of Anglesey
49:39
Druids. I would have gone along and had a chat with
49:41
him. But no, because it was my fucking dad's memorial service.
49:43
So you're not gonna work the room. You're my bastard. What
49:45
is he gonna get?
49:48
Yeah. What is in
49:50
that for you? I
49:54
don't know. Just people who run church hall or
49:56
you know, have the keys to a local
49:58
property. They're always something special. Out.
50:01
Not. Funny Miss Daisy a
50:03
body s not my would
50:05
like to hang around for
50:07
every nice into he looks
50:10
good the the Mississippi anyway.
50:12
So January fourth, nineteen eighty
50:14
and the there is a
50:16
procession. Down Cel be straight for
50:19
the boys, you know who he got.
50:21
Spree child coffins. I can't imagine what
50:23
it's like. Tv cameras everywhere is overseas,
50:25
big news and in front of the
50:27
same child coffin makes it sound like
50:29
something. That like a job that you don't
50:31
in these people's and I. Call soldier.
50:34
A chocolate out of the I saw. At
50:38
the poor poor lad now in front
50:40
of all these Tv cameras aged screams
50:42
it was one of you. Bust is
50:44
one of you. On this street is
50:46
the murderer. Which. Made suck
50:49
and lovely television like hell yeah yeah
50:51
much Insurgents misdemeanor that a yes the
50:53
Amazon as a center now and there
50:55
was a cool to the whole police
50:57
department and the day after the Fi
50:59
that was anonymous the said listen I
51:01
thought to men running away from the
51:04
scene am I saw them jump into
51:06
a rover? Two thousand were was someone
51:08
waiting to drive them away. Ah and
51:10
so though driven away but the said
51:12
months so they trace this call while
51:14
he's on the call the police go
51:16
down and they arrest disguise. He's leaving
51:18
the pay phone and and they they interview
51:21
him and they basically said this is a
51:23
close as they have to lead the got
51:25
nothing to okay with robots who two thousand
51:27
and they sit for everyone in the air
51:29
with read the two thousand and spoke quite
51:31
and modern car so they think for a
51:33
while. It's. A case of mistaken
51:36
identity. The basically think that those two
51:38
men were getting revenge on that a
51:40
drug dealer who lived next door to
51:42
the Hastings don't and just got the
51:45
wrong door. Ah right. But then as
51:47
they go and have a skin this
51:49
this rubbish you thousand is really turning
51:51
up any leads. it's whole day like
51:54
our voices guys a bullshitter because he
51:56
can describe the men's eye color and
51:58
he can describe a. details
52:01
down to and I quote the buttons on their
52:03
t-shirt who's got a fucking button on your t-shirt
52:05
oh I know exactly what that is that's that
52:07
proper sort of Oh
52:10
like a polo shirt yeah like a Fred
52:12
Perry type but you know razor yeah I
52:15
guess yeah maybe and that yeah
52:17
in 1980 yeah I could see
52:20
that so so they're sort
52:22
of in this Rover 2000 area but
52:24
it doesn't actually it doesn't actually bring
52:28
up anything they start talking to
52:31
local criminals and what they say
52:33
to them is that they
52:35
think because it's a kid murder that they will
52:37
actually grass up because normally obviously there's
52:39
like on or amongst feeds but they think
52:42
because the family is you know it's such
52:44
a tragedy because it's kids but they're like
52:46
no and then there's six months of endlessly
52:48
interviewing the community police presence all the time
52:50
interviewing all the local like petty thieves and
52:53
everything and basically someone turns around and goes
52:55
listen can you just piss off now because
52:58
like no one's doing any good jobs right here
53:00
people aren't even necking stereos because you're here all
53:02
the time and said we would
53:04
if we knew who it was we would tell
53:06
you just so you fucking fuck off and we
53:09
can crack on with our lives again so there's
53:11
a really obviously bad relationship between the police and
53:13
the area they were like okay because they would
53:15
like well listen like you're ruining our lives we
53:17
would tell you if anyone knew you're ruining the
53:20
local economy you are ruining the local economy there's
53:22
nothing for here for our boys anymore so
53:25
one of the things they found from this rover
53:27
2000 which by the way few months
53:30
later the guy at the payphone who called in
53:32
that tip went I just remembered it was a
53:34
different night so they did
53:36
all this investigation they got a little bit
53:38
rober 2000s now one of the lists one
53:40
of the rover 2000s on this list they
53:43
they surveilled for a while and they found
53:45
out that whoever was driving it was cruising
53:47
for sex with teenage boys which is quite
53:49
a common thing in that area because it's
53:51
very very impoverished it written so
53:53
much of this
53:56
does there was a big don't
54:00
sing anymore. So they find
54:02
that one of these guys is sort of soliciting so
54:04
they think maybe there's a connection to these like
54:08
rent boys, so Ronald
54:11
Sagar throws the dice on this one and
54:13
goes, okay I'm gonna get the ten sort
54:15
of like busiest boys in and I'm gonna
54:17
say I know you did the fires Like
54:21
come on you come clean and fuck.
54:23
I know you did No
54:25
pun intended. I know you did. I
54:27
know you did the fires So just confess
54:30
now and you know and it won't get any worse
54:32
for you So one of the people who brings in
54:34
is a 19 year old called Bruce Lee and
54:36
he says I didn't mean to kill
54:38
them and he's like oh It
54:42
wasn't expecting to at all. So
54:44
there's a couple of reasons for this
54:46
So Charlie and so 15 year old Charlie
54:48
the eldest and the boys and 19 year
54:50
old peas that have interactions We said that
54:52
largely through the rent boys scene. So
54:56
brew brew slash pizza refers to it as
54:59
He was doing something indecent with Charlie and he said
55:01
wanking in that and then what would
55:03
happen is Charlie would get it Kind of extort him
55:05
for money. Um Because he
55:08
sort of implies Peter's sort of implying it's a mutual
55:10
thing and they're just like messing about one King together
55:13
Wonky each other off and stuff and but
55:15
then Charlie would be like I want money for that or I
55:17
want money Otherwise, I'm gonna go to the police because I'm 15
55:19
and what you're doing is illegal So
55:22
he didn't like him for that and
55:25
he was also Obsessed with Angie who
55:27
was the eldest of the girls his 16 year
55:29
old daughter there of the of
55:31
the hasty's and the The
55:34
boys used to bully him and make fun of him and everyone
55:36
would make fun of him for being so into Angie And
55:39
so he was like, right. I'm gonna I'm gonna get him
55:41
back and
55:44
so sets the house on fire, but what
55:46
what what say guard doesn't know at this
55:49
point is that this is Like
55:51
the final part of his death count that he
55:53
has been setting fires that kill people since he
55:56
was about nine years old Oh my god So.
56:00
The Ladder bike For God's sake. He basically
56:02
says he wanted to frighten him and not
56:04
kill him. and he had a bike. It's
56:07
actually how he got away with some of
56:09
this Am. so he he basically. Wait
56:11
until it got quite in there and it
56:13
was quite normal could the girls were away
56:16
and. And he puts in paraffin
56:18
through the letterbox and he tries twice
56:20
with matches and it doesn't pass hence
56:22
the matches big down there. and then
56:24
he lights a bit of newspaper and
56:26
he froze and the nice if burns
56:28
and then the carpet and it just
56:30
goes up in credibly quickly and. And
56:33
that's what happens now if I think he
56:35
did in some skills. are
56:37
thing he doesn't care I think never really
56:39
interesting thing with him where he is. For
56:42
many reasons I don't think he has
56:44
total capacity but as a society a
56:46
rough history it incredibly badly by the
56:48
area by everybody digesting. thanks I'll fuck
56:50
up like he's got no skin in
56:52
the game is he likes some. People
56:55
in the house down. Now it's
56:57
released in the press that and
56:59
Bruce Lee has been hostile and
57:01
kill three children and and some
57:03
call Robson. Sydney's about twenty seven
57:05
was twenty seven when the crime
57:07
occurs and she goes up with
57:09
Sancho Bruce Lee and then later
57:11
on the news for this a
57:13
big story. She's is a patron
57:15
guy that's not Bruce Lee that
57:17
stuffed pizza and I have a
57:19
memory of him. While I
57:21
was in a fire says she phoned
57:24
the place. So this is back in June.
57:26
Nineteen Seventy nine. Rods. Is
57:28
heavily pregnant, she twenty some years
57:30
old and she. Is
57:32
in the house and she sees a cigarette
57:35
the door, putting their hands through the letterbox.
57:37
I literally can't think of anything fucking scary
57:39
It and seeing a hunch or less about
57:41
a doctoral level of yeah, of course addicts
57:43
or else about it. He can enter contests
57:45

59:45
self conscious and also fucking spending as
59:47
well. How much isn't. And.
59:49
I dunno but then I have like this
59:51
in the show. ah. Maybe
59:53
like four months later, I get an email
59:55
from my townsend going: Can I ask what?
59:58
Can. i ask what this This
1:00:01
payment to like whatever it's
1:00:03
called the pleasure dome is Just
1:00:06
a really big sandwich, but it was like it
1:00:08
was too much money really for a show I
1:00:10
only did fucking five or six thousand. I got
1:00:12
like 22 quid and it's just one joke Yeah,
1:00:17
one joke and it isn't in my business
1:00:19
account. Yours has got balls. It's got balls Yeah, and
1:00:22
it's horrible. It doesn't vibrate or anything. It's got suction.
1:00:24
Oh, yeah, well you put it on the side of
1:00:26
the shower, right? I
1:00:28
just it's not for me too big. I
1:00:31
don't Aggressive. Yeah.
1:00:33
Well, you've seen that the box is more aggressive
1:00:35
than mine. It's a big red end Tell you
1:00:37
what? I'll bring it to the live shows And
1:00:40
at the end one of you could win
1:00:42
it. Also that there is something people will
1:00:44
always laugh at Adilda. It's funny It's funny
1:00:46
I've also like the whole point of like
1:00:48
I give quite an earnest speech at the
1:00:51
end about Mm-hmm male suicide and
1:00:53
you know people who who died by suicide men in
1:00:55
particular and the I've sort of got the dildo And
1:00:57
it's got a lot of mood you've seen it's got
1:00:59
a lot of movement So I just
1:01:01
thought is sort of a funny thing to
1:01:03
do to make everyone feel more comfortable what
1:01:06
I'm talking about I mean, it's a great show
1:01:08
guys. I'm very sad and I've got the story. She can't watch it
1:01:10
anyway so Ros
1:01:13
goes She sees his
1:01:15
hand through the letterbox That's what they start using
1:01:17
the hand through the letter and she was like
1:01:19
and then as soon as they saw her stunning
1:01:21
there They disappeared. I shouldn't I'll find it. It's
1:01:24
just a pacer because he was always knocking around
1:01:26
doing slightly weird things They're like fine. He's absolutely
1:01:28
harmless And I think loads of us have grown
1:01:30
up with maybe someone with additional needs in our
1:01:32
community and everyone's like that So you're harmless, but
1:01:34
also don't treat them well or support them necessarily
1:01:37
or maybe they do I thought I've definitely tell
1:01:39
this story before about the guy. I think he
1:01:41
still works at the supermarket Who
1:01:44
he collected trolleys? Used
1:01:47
way to him and all the rest of it and you
1:01:49
know everyone knew Anyway, some
1:01:52
lads picked on him And
1:01:55
some local scallies found out beat the
1:01:57
shit out of the lads I like
1:01:59
mob justice Yeah. Yes, please. So
1:02:01
she goes to bed and
1:02:04
then she's woken up and someone is screaming
1:02:06
fire. Oh
1:02:08
my God, that noise was so frightening. It
1:02:11
was a horse, wasn't it? I don't know. Don't know
1:02:13
if you heard that on her. Yeah, I did. Did
1:02:15
someone say Rachel again? I'm going back. Don't,
1:02:19
it's scary. So I think
1:02:21
that was when I heard my name. Go
1:02:24
on. That was the dog. Is
1:02:27
it like, there's a devolve out there? I
1:02:30
think that was a Harbinger,
1:02:33
Harbinger. Is it Harbinger? I've
1:02:36
only ever read the word. I've never said it. Harbinger of
1:02:38
doom. Oh yeah, because
1:02:40
you had loads of bad stuff
1:02:42
happened. A few horrible things happened.
1:02:45
I think that was what that was. Fucking
1:02:49
hell. I mean, it could just have
1:02:51
been a mistake. It was a mistake. Yeah, it was a phone
1:02:53
buzzing. So
1:02:55
she wakes up, someone is yelling fire. She's
1:02:58
fucking massively pregnant. So she moves as fast
1:03:00
as she can to her daughter, Samantha's room.
1:03:02
Her daughter is seven years old. They can't
1:03:04
escape. Oh my God. So she basically goes
1:03:06
and gets in the corner furthest away from
1:03:08
the fire and she sits there with Samantha
1:03:10
and fortunately, they are rescued but they
1:03:13
are severely burned to the
1:03:15
point. Oh my God. Yeah, awful. They could just, they just
1:03:17
have to sit there and wait. They're in hospital
1:03:19
for months. Rod miscarries
1:03:22
as a result. Oh, fucking hell. It's
1:03:24
absolutely horrible. Yeah,
1:03:27
now they didn't
1:03:29
interview her because she so traumatized the police and
1:03:31
then because there was no death, there was never
1:03:33
an inquest into it, which means that
1:03:35
she never got to give a statement and say, I do
1:03:37
remember seeing someone by the door and I think it was,
1:03:40
I think it was deaf to Peter.
1:03:42
So this could have been stopped early
1:03:44
days with the one
1:03:46
fatality of Ros's unborn child,
1:03:49
but it wasn't because there wasn't an investigation
1:03:52
and they just blamed it. They said, oh, someone probably stopped
1:03:54
a cigarette. It was visiting in the day and that was
1:03:56
it. That was done in the
1:03:58
day. So she had a visitor of The day it
1:04:00
was a smoker, new and old us will be those. Job to
1:04:02
cigarettes so cigarette. Stayed. Burn. And
1:04:04
yeah, exactly does a lot of that
1:04:06
whether lot, yeah, cigarette must have burned
1:04:09
for seven hours unattended as a lot
1:04:11
of the lazy bastards and she says
1:04:13
she phoned the police. And.
1:04:16
Ah, and they said. Do. You do
1:04:18
you know a Roth son said and he was like yeah did
1:04:20
that one as well. Sages. Immediately
1:04:22
confesses and they said why and he said
1:04:24
i just did is someone I knew didn't
1:04:26
like are so I just did it. But.
1:04:29
Lives late. One of the reasons are so
1:04:31
hard to find him is it was absolutely
1:04:33
motiveless. He would just wandered on golf choir
1:04:36
and he set fire to us to the
1:04:38
couldn't find their like a way. It's not
1:04:40
like normal serial killers what he's doing it
1:04:42
so some kind of exacting revenge or a
1:04:44
carefully pick the targets not in a bomber
1:04:47
worse you know you know. Days to solve
1:04:49
is absolutely random. And they
1:04:51
they as a result they think it's a criminal
1:04:53
mastermind really good at hiding his tracks as opposed
1:04:55
to what kind of keeping a months of ahead
1:04:58
is the fact that this isn't any thought going
1:05:00
into and see you com like would tell his
1:05:02
psyche because this is not loads going on at
1:05:04
so they said and done mall and he was
1:05:06
like yeah. I killed a
1:05:09
baby. One of my God. This guy.
1:05:11
Horrible. Now under seven years. he's active
1:05:13
as an arsonist, hawthorne arsonists and for
1:05:15
relate know and he. Kills.
1:05:18
Absolutely loathe. The thing is altogether is
1:05:20
Twenty six which makes him one of
1:05:23
Britain's that he kills more than the
1:05:25
more murders the I was able to
1:05:27
block the your guilt trip on that.
1:05:30
That was called the block the Slump
1:05:32
from Manchester. Yeah. Is. It
1:05:34
manifesto the. You. Know
1:05:36
our main Trevor Harder yeah the boost of
1:05:38
months as it not he said in Manchester
1:05:41
Terrier was on was it this is gonna
1:05:43
the nickname of the the written it down
1:05:45
as someone he kills more than the other
1:05:47
black panther. Is
1:05:49
it feels wrong Said Black Panther? Oh
1:05:51
yes of them. Yes, The movement, Black
1:05:53
Panther. and ah, on the York Strip
1:05:55
of put together. But
1:05:58
nobody knows about him and he does a. Seven
1:06:00
years and the his victims are between six
1:06:02
months of age and ninety two years of
1:06:04
age. It is it. You'll get up. say
1:06:07
hey some of the of coming up by
1:06:09
the way so on. He.
1:06:12
He basically. Run. Cigars like.
1:06:15
Okay puts him in the time that of
1:06:17
her drive is is Tommy to pull over.
1:06:19
He recognizes what they've done. A fire to
1:06:21
get the card is like that the or
1:06:23
that. So I killed the first people so
1:06:25
we get timeline of his murders. By the
1:06:27
way at some point I do actually think
1:06:29
is completely making up and he's lying because
1:06:31
they're like this. Kid who can
1:06:33
you know com was very well isn't very
1:06:35
bright, has not. Done. All this stuff and escape
1:06:38
detection. So many these five min at you know
1:06:40
proven to be an accident so the taken supposed
1:06:42
to the you did this to new with i
1:06:44
was a fire must if i killed people. On
1:06:47
they knew the perpetrator that absolute priests to the light
1:06:49
will catch this kid out was like they don't know.
1:06:52
I didn't at all. nothing to do with me. So.
1:06:54
Like we think, this case is telling the
1:06:56
traits to join them around. and now he
1:06:59
built a he also. but loads of empty
1:07:01
buildings as well unless you have that much
1:07:03
knowledge of fires in general like. Why
1:07:06
would he had got obsessed with in the
1:07:08
press So you know, whatever that and at
1:07:10
enough because he just wouldn't have. I think
1:07:12
no one would have suspected him as a
1:07:14
So there's loads of empty buildings that he
1:07:17
burnt down as well and his thing was
1:07:19
to is a car a pack a pair
1:07:21
of and cans and. Now.
1:07:23
Because of the time, like were saying,
1:07:25
loads of open files or some other
1:07:27
materials know, smoke alarms. It was really
1:07:29
common, full sized to happen, but there
1:07:31
was a particularly high incidence of it
1:07:33
in his right, but not enough so
1:07:35
anyone looked into S. So his next
1:07:37
murders is ah, in June, twenty third,
1:07:39
nineteen seventy three and parents are of
1:07:41
Richard L. are intent on a night
1:07:43
out Now He, ah they. They leave
1:07:45
the kid at the with a baby
1:07:47
sister called Carol Burnett. There's a site,
1:07:49
got six kids and she's got a
1:07:51
baby as well as. you must
1:07:53
playing a fucking shit let's look after
1:07:55
all these kids now little richard is
1:07:57
not over to the office weirdly
1:08:00
he pops up in this and we're
1:08:02
going I'm not bisexual don't ask me any more questions.
1:08:05
So yeah Richard Ellerington
1:08:08
is in the same school, special
1:08:10
needs school as
1:08:13
Peter. Now basically
1:08:15
he sets fire, the parents come back
1:08:17
and they have a chat with Carol
1:08:19
about 2.30 in the morning all the
1:08:21
parents go to bed all the babies
1:08:23
are already in bed. Now he
1:08:26
basically slips in and
1:08:29
sets fire to the building that everyone
1:08:32
is in the chaos of this remember there's like
1:08:34
six kids and a baby and
1:08:36
three adults rushing out and in the
1:08:38
rush they don't realise that Richard has
1:08:40
been left behind and
1:08:43
he's in the front bedroom. Oh my god is that
1:08:45
a whole molyne but worse. It's absolutely terrible it's yeah
1:08:48
he he dies and
1:08:51
he is six years old. That's horrible.
1:08:53
They blame us they blame a gas
1:08:55
oven for it that was leaking but
1:08:58
yeah it wasn't that. The front door was unlocked the
1:09:00
window was open because it was a warm night so
1:09:02
he was able to just sort of get
1:09:05
in when he wanted but like what's this fucking
1:09:07
kid knocking weird he must have been
1:09:09
quite young at this time so what is he 73 so he'd
1:09:11
win 13 what is he doing it's half past two in the
1:09:13
morning just wandering around but apparently that's the kind of shit he
1:09:15
did. So his
1:09:18
next victim is October 12 1973 it's
1:09:23
it's about six o'clock and oh by the way
1:09:25
the next day he's on the bus which Richard
1:09:27
would normally get and someone went oh
1:09:29
Richard died in a fire last night and he he said
1:09:31
he knew and then he was like and then I've just
1:09:33
kept that secret to myself ever since and
1:09:36
so that's how he sort of processed the death he
1:09:38
didn't really sort of like say anything about it very
1:09:40
strange. So October 12 1973 Bernard
1:09:45
Smythe this is awful this poor
1:09:47
guy he is like
1:09:49
I say in his 70s he's
1:09:51
reclusive he's got dementia he's got
1:09:54
double gangrene in his legs so
1:09:56
he basically lives in his living room because he
1:09:58
can't get up the stairs. He also has
1:10:00
had the electricity cut off because he's not very
1:10:02
well and he's not got a lot of money.
1:10:04
Oh this is horrible. He has a candle to
1:10:06
read with because he can't see and
1:10:09
fucking Peter basically
1:10:12
goes in through. There's a broken window that he
1:10:15
hasn't been able to repair because he's an old
1:10:17
guy with not a lot of money and he's
1:10:19
got enough shit going on. He comes in through
1:10:21
the broken window and he sprays paraffin everywhere in
1:10:23
the lounge and he's satisfied to it and Bernard
1:10:25
dies in his chair. He can't walk out because
1:10:27
he's got this this gangrenous
1:10:30
legs and they do an investigation.
1:10:32
They say what happened is the paraffin heater it tipped
1:10:34
over and the candle set fire to it and
1:10:37
horrific absolutely horrific.
1:10:39
It's 13 at this point and he kills
1:10:41
loads of people this year. So
1:10:43
David Brewer as well. So October 27th
1:10:46
this is like two weeks after that
1:10:48
murder, 1973. He
1:10:51
had been, I've noticed a lot of things here. If
1:10:54
you look at these first three, Richard
1:10:57
had a disability, Bernard has a disability, David was
1:10:59
injured in a work accident. So they're saying it's
1:11:01
random but so many of these people have disabilities
1:11:03
and I don't know if it's just because he
1:11:06
did other fires he didn't admit to and these
1:11:08
people were able-bodied and able to get out but
1:11:10
there's a lot of vulnerable.
1:11:12
Yeah and in the hasty's as well. Also a
1:11:14
woman with a daughter and a
1:11:18
pregnant woman who can't move
1:11:20
easily. So yeah David Brewer
1:11:22
had had a work accident that
1:11:24
had meant he had an injury that he wasn't able
1:11:26
to sort of move as well. It's basically impacted his
1:11:28
life. So he lived with his mum.
1:11:31
His mum was out that particular night and he used
1:11:33
to basically spend a lot of time
1:11:35
and sleep on the settee a lot because it was
1:11:37
difficult for him to move. He goes to the loo,
1:11:40
he comes back in and the living
1:11:42
room is on fire and
1:11:45
he catches fire very quickly. His
1:11:47
neighbour Hilda Lister comes running over
1:11:49
and covers him in wet towels
1:11:51
because he's covered in burns but
1:11:54
he still died a few days later in hospital.
1:11:57
I think he lived for about eight days. Her
1:12:00
son, Sean Lister, knew Peter.
1:12:04
And this is sort of why they think his
1:12:07
motive was. So basically David
1:12:09
had pigeons and Peter
1:12:12
used to come over and just walk in the house all
1:12:14
the time, walk up to the pigeon thing and he was
1:12:16
like, you don't just come around here when you want. This
1:12:18
is, you know, he asked permission and Sean was like, Sean
1:12:21
used to help out with the pigeons and
1:12:23
he basically gave him a clip around the ear. So
1:12:26
some people say he gave a clip around the ear. Some people
1:12:28
say he threatened to give him a clip around the ear and
1:12:30
Peter did not like that and he said, I'm going to kill
1:12:32
him for that. And he
1:12:35
says, I'm going to ring your pigeons next. And
1:12:37
he and that's when he that's apparently when he hit him. And
1:12:40
then they went to the pigeon loft. All the animals
1:12:42
have had the next run. Oh my God,
1:12:44
guys, mad. Yeah. And
1:12:47
he's dangerous. And David had died.
1:12:49
He'd been burnt. Yeah. So
1:12:51
Elizabeth Roker on I hate this
1:12:53
one, December 23rd, 1974. She's
1:12:56
a widow. She slept in her living room most
1:12:58
of the time. She
1:13:01
the living room catches
1:13:03
fire and she couldn't
1:13:05
walk unassisted. She needed a walk because she just
1:13:07
couldn't get out in time. And
1:13:10
so they see smoke coming out at about like,
1:13:12
oh, she also was blind as well. Oh, for
1:13:14
fuck's sake. We stopped telling him this is horrible.
1:13:16
I told you he would hate this one. So,
1:13:18
yeah, she's a poor woman cannot see very well.
1:13:20
She's losing her eyes. Like she has to use
1:13:23
a frame to walk with that's fired to her
1:13:25
living room where she sleeps most of the time
1:13:27
when she dies. There's an investigation. They
1:13:29
say, oh, it must have been her clothes drying by
1:13:31
the fire because lots of people did that the court
1:13:34
and went and then the investigator when I want to
1:13:36
start it in the bedroom by the pillow, she
1:13:38
must have been smoking in bed and a family
1:13:40
were like, she loves smoking, but she never smoked
1:13:42
in bed. That was like one of her rules.
1:13:44
And they're like, yeah, no, she was smoking bad.
1:13:46
So they didn't investigate any further. Even though like,
1:13:48
how would have a cigarette have like she would
1:13:50
have to have been it takes ages to get,
1:13:52
you know, like it's just a timeline system
1:13:55
because he's going to catch it catches quickly. Right.
1:13:58
People when they say if people know somebody, listen to them. you know if
1:14:00
someone goes missing it's like you've got to wait 24 hours
1:14:02
if something's out of character i don't know why they don't
1:14:04
just yeah yeah so
1:14:07
yeah he just had entered through the back door because she
1:14:09
was you know she knew the air and she didn't she
1:14:11
didn't lock it so um this
1:14:13
is god there's some these
1:14:16
are all horrible so June 3rd 1976 this is
1:14:18
um a couple called James of Veronica
1:14:22
Edwards they have a son they've got three kids
1:14:25
um Andrew is the youngest he's only 13 months
1:14:28
old they go out for a night out
1:14:30
and they leave Nana to look after it
1:14:32
so that's Dorothy Stevenson so Dorothy's looking after
1:14:34
the babies she's in a 70 she's 77
1:14:37
she puts baby Andrew the youngest to bed
1:14:39
now when she comes downstairs she noticed that
1:14:41
the cupboard under the stairs is has got
1:14:44
smoke billowing out of it so she gets
1:14:46
the kids outside but it gets the
1:14:49
kids out but the baby is trapped in an area
1:14:51
that she cannot get to and yeah he
1:14:54
uh he passes away
1:14:56
andrew is 13 months old and he dies
1:14:58
this is awful that what then
1:15:01
what happens is little David who's one of the kids
1:15:03
he's five years old says this is my fault because
1:15:05
i've been playing with matches and the grandma was like
1:15:07
no you haven't there's there's one set of matches in
1:15:09
the house and they were in my pocket she said
1:15:11
you didn't do this but he was convinced he did
1:15:13
and then he went back and said well no i'd
1:15:15
you know i just know it's bad to play as much as it wasn't actually
1:15:18
me it's horrific
1:15:20
it's so horrific Dorothy feels so guilty
1:15:22
that she couldn't save Andrew she ends
1:15:24
up going into an institution
1:15:27
because she it just it literally drives her
1:15:29
insane it is just deemed to be a
1:15:31
very tragic accident it's
1:15:34
horrible January 2nd
1:15:36
1977 Katrina Thacker um
1:15:39
so her family again had pigeons and Peter used
1:15:41
to walk around all the time and like interfere
1:15:43
so that there was sort of a connection interfere
1:15:46
he used to come around it'd just be a
1:15:48
fucking nuisance around the place so
1:15:50
basically um what happened
1:15:53
was so she had
1:15:55
a baby so there's a toddler asleep upstairs she had a
1:15:57
baby in a car and she had Another
1:16:00
girl as well who's a little bit older who I think
1:16:02
was half sister to the babies So she
1:16:04
takes the sister the little girl to the toilet
1:16:06
when she comes back everything is on fire She
1:16:09
runs upstairs. She grabs the toddler gets
1:16:11
the kids out comes back. She can't
1:16:14
she can't get to the cop and This
1:16:16
is a six-month-old child Who
1:16:18
then dies and they said
1:16:21
always because the fireplace was set up to be
1:16:23
burned and they were like, yeah But there was
1:16:25
no fuel it was just there was just stuff
1:16:27
in there and they were like, yeah Must have
1:16:29
been a spark that's coming through the window and
1:16:31
then so it was like no investigation So there's
1:16:34
a tragic accident So
1:16:36
we're on to January 5th, which you'll notice
1:16:38
is three days later in 1977 So
1:16:42
he cycles this is an interesting one. This
1:16:44
is I'd say one of the worst he
1:16:46
cycles three miles He's just cycling
1:16:48
around he's got some paraffin with him a can
1:16:50
of paraffin and he finds his house He's like,
1:16:52
oh, it's nice and quiet. So he kicks
1:16:55
the window in and he goes into a bedroom spreads
1:16:58
the paraffin around and Sets
1:17:00
fire to it and then cycles back and throws
1:17:02
the can into the Humber Into
1:17:04
the into the body of water that now
1:17:07
this the building that he's in that was nice
1:17:09
and quiet was a place called Wensley Lodge and
1:17:11
it is a council owned residential home. I think
1:17:13
you've got the name to the 11 Harold
1:17:17
Acosta 95 Victoria concert
1:17:20
83 Benjamin Phillips 83 After
1:17:22
L would 82 William Holt take to William
1:17:24
Carter who's 80 Percy Sanderson 77
1:17:27
John Ruby 75 William
1:17:30
Bill 73 Leonard Dennett who was 73
1:17:32
and Arthur harder. He was 65. I
1:17:35
was wrong that I thought was six months to 92 It's 95
1:17:38
years. Imagine getting to 95 and die not it's
1:17:40
awful So a care assistant is
1:17:43
in the home on the first floor and see smoke coming
1:17:45
out from under one of the doors Goes
1:17:47
and get someone else they find the fire and there was a
1:17:49
resident in there that they managed to get out Absolutely
1:17:52
awful They obviously evacuate as much as they can
1:17:55
but they can't get everybody out in time because
1:17:57
so many people in those situations have you know
1:17:59
mobility needs and fire evacuations were absolute,
1:18:01
you know, like, incredibly hard
1:18:03
thing to do. And at night there's fewer stuff
1:18:05
on as well. And apparently
1:18:08
he, he, there's different accounts of it, but
1:18:10
I've read an account where Peter didn't sell
1:18:12
said, Oh, that was horrible. Yeah, I was
1:18:15
cycling away and I could hear men screaming.
1:18:17
Oh my god, oh my god. Like,
1:18:20
but then there's some way he goes, Oh, no, I was
1:18:22
nowhere near it. Like when it happened. Now,
1:18:25
what happens is a poor plumber who was
1:18:27
working on the building that day in the
1:18:29
basement. They blamed on him. Yeah,
1:18:31
there was a bloke. He said, Oh, we're using a blowtorch and
1:18:33
it must have heated up the pipe and the pipe must have
1:18:35
stayed hot for seven hours
1:18:38
and traveled up the building and then set
1:18:40
fire to the, to the
1:18:42
thing. Yeah, exactly. And it's, it's
1:18:44
this shit of a kid doing
1:18:46
all basically. So April 27 1977,
1:18:48
we're nearly there. And it's three o'clock
1:18:53
in the morning. Peter Jordan is asleep in
1:18:55
his living. Oh, no, he's asleep in a
1:18:57
living room. He's staying with his friends, Albert
1:18:59
and Gwendolyn Gold. And now his
1:19:02
kids are staying over. It's a great
1:19:04
name, isn't it? So Albert
1:19:06
and Gwendolyn are upstairs with their two
1:19:09
kids. And Peter's two
1:19:11
kids are staying over as well. Um, so
1:19:14
they, he wakes up because he hears some
1:19:16
banging and he sees sort of a figure
1:19:18
and then all of a sudden the room
1:19:20
is on fire. So he must have without
1:19:22
really realizing seen Peter, like not
1:19:24
processing it with him, but had seen him
1:19:26
setting the fire. He runs
1:19:29
up, it's like a blaze. He shouts up the
1:19:31
stairs. He's like, there's a fire, there's a fire,
1:19:33
everybody needs to get out. So
1:19:36
the goals, they come down with a kid
1:19:38
who they've been in the back bedroom. Now,
1:19:40
Deborah, one of their kids has got a
1:19:43
physical disability. Again, that's like a common
1:19:45
theme. So she can't get out, you know,
1:19:47
she's struggling to get out. So
1:19:50
the kids are leaving very window in the back
1:19:52
room. And then little Mark Jordan, who's only seven
1:19:54
years old, realizes that Deborah can't do it on
1:19:56
his own. And he runs back in and he
1:19:59
and Deborah, die and he's
1:20:01
got this seven-year-old kid has gone to save it's
1:20:03
absolutely and that's Peter's son so it was like
1:20:06
the friends who's staying over so he gets
1:20:08
the kid gets a posthumous award for bravery like
1:20:10
rightly so but it's I mean it's like it
1:20:12
was genuinely making me well up it's so so
1:20:14
sad it's so so sad
1:20:17
now Peter whose son died
1:20:20
saving that poor girl he
1:20:23
was blamed they said oh were you smoking in the house
1:20:25
and they said you must have left left an ash something
1:20:28
in the after-trave that was led and
1:20:30
that's this is horrible he was absolutely
1:20:32
traumatized apparently never recovered from it because
1:20:34
he thought he was responsible for the
1:20:36
death of not only his own
1:20:38
child but another child as well so
1:20:40
January 6 1978
1:20:43
Christina Dixon she's got four
1:20:45
boys right the boys are
1:20:48
in bed she's out chatting to a neighbor all of
1:20:50
a sudden she looks around and she sees the windows
1:20:52
are full of sorts and she's starting
1:20:54
to see smoke coming out so she runs back
1:20:56
in her husband's sick in bed upstairs so
1:20:59
like she grabs the baby whose
1:21:02
name is Brian he's covered in soot
1:21:04
already so he's sleeping downstairs in that
1:21:06
the car she grabs him and she
1:21:08
goes back in for Mark who's for
1:21:10
Steven who's three and Michael who's only
1:21:12
17 months old now the
1:21:14
neighbor sees her go back in and then just
1:21:16
sees this massive ring of fire appear around in
1:21:18
the living room she hears
1:21:21
her scream Christine there's an explosion
1:21:23
and everybody oh my god awful
1:21:26
and they blame the children they said oh
1:21:28
well apparently the children used to play with
1:21:30
some lighter fluid that was in the mantlepiece
1:21:33
so these children get blamed for
1:21:35
the death horrible it is absolutely terrible
1:21:38
so he apparently used
1:21:40
to wander around he get a fire in his
1:21:42
head like I said you know you have tingly
1:21:44
fingers and he'd wander around he put paraffin in
1:21:46
a washing up bottle and he would wander around
1:21:48
with it and and one
1:21:50
of the mad things about like ableism
1:21:52
but I'm sorry is this boring
1:21:54
you all these murders all these murders all these
1:21:56
people burning to death Very
1:22:01
tired. He's quite tired in here in all of
1:22:03
this. It's fatiguing. So,
1:22:06
one of the things is
1:22:08
because he was disabled, even
1:22:12
though they all knew he was setting fire scenes, they
1:22:14
never suspected him because they were like, he doesn't have
1:22:16
the intellect and he's just like, they just thought, as
1:22:18
people do, that like, disabled people
1:22:21
can't contribute anything, not even
1:22:23
negatively. So, he
1:22:25
said he was invisible. He would stand at
1:22:29
the fire scenes and no one would ever suspect him.
1:22:31
So, he would stand there and watch for ages and
1:22:33
they thought, oh, it's just deaf Peter being deaf to
1:22:35
Peter. And he was just like, yeah, just sort of
1:22:37
be hard. And it's
1:22:40
absolutely nuts. So,
1:22:42
apparently he did wrestle with it, but he
1:22:45
said, oh, you know, after stuff had happened,
1:22:47
I would check the Bible and see what
1:22:49
it said. But ultimately he
1:22:51
was still going to do it again. Now,
1:22:54
he was, he's basically charged
1:22:56
in October of 1980 after
1:22:58
confessing to everything, based
1:23:00
on the Ros's call in going,
1:23:02
I'm pretty sure this is Peter who set fire
1:23:04
to me years ago. He's psychologically
1:23:06
evaluated and he's found that he is
1:23:09
sane and he's fit to stand trial.
1:23:12
Well, so January 20th, 1981, it's in Leeds
1:23:15
Crown Court. He
1:23:18
denied murder and he pled
1:23:20
guilty to 26 counts
1:23:24
of manslaughter and 11 counts
1:23:26
of arson. And because
1:23:28
he pled guilty, his pleas were accepted. And
1:23:32
basically it went from murder to manslaughter
1:23:34
on grounds of diminished responsibility because of,
1:23:37
in relation to his IQ and things, but I'm like, well,
1:23:39
how does he fit to stand trial if he can't really
1:23:42
delineate, he can't make really
1:23:45
conscious decisions about whether something's right or wrong.
1:23:48
And so the prosecutor was someone called
1:23:50
Gerald Coles, who said the fires were
1:23:53
his only true achievement in life, which
1:23:55
is mean, but
1:23:58
also like deserved. I also wouldn't
1:24:00
say, let's not start saying these things are achievements.
1:24:02
Yeah. But you know, I need anything to... Do
1:24:05
you have an ROA? Do you have one of those files? Do you
1:24:07
get one of those in school? I got one of achievements. Yeah. Yeah,
1:24:09
yeah. Do you know someone we know still does? What card is it?
1:24:11
And they're in their 40s. And they're
1:24:13
like, just filled another ROA. Ew.
1:24:18
What a sad bastard.
1:24:21
I knew you'd be fearing! I
1:24:23
knew you'd be fearing. Sad bastard.
1:24:26
Well, it's a weird thing to... You know, scri...
1:24:28
You know, no shade at anyone who has scrapbooks,
1:24:30
which I feel is probably about 40% of our
1:24:32
audience. So there was an
1:24:34
investigation by local authorities. They
1:24:36
basically... They investigated the local
1:24:38
authority. And were like, how has
1:24:40
this happened? How have you let a boy just wander
1:24:43
around doing this? How was he so unsupported? He
1:24:46
is detained indefinitely under the
1:24:48
Mental Health Act. And
1:24:50
the judge said... The judge has
1:24:52
got a lovely Welsh name. Justice
1:24:54
Tiddur Evans. He
1:24:56
said, this guy is a psychopath and he is
1:24:59
a danger to the public. Now,
1:25:03
in the time between him being charged and it
1:25:05
going to trial, Tommy Hasty, if you
1:25:07
remember him, the dad who was let out, never
1:25:10
saw the trial because this family is
1:25:12
mired by tragedy. He's
1:25:14
on a motorbike with one of his daughters.
1:25:16
He has an accident and it kills them
1:25:18
both. Oh my God! It is absolutely awful.
1:25:20
And then two months later, Edie has another
1:25:23
baby. So like she'd
1:25:25
been pregnant when he died and another daughter
1:25:27
died. Like that family's had so much tragedy.
1:25:29
It's unbelievably bleak. So he, first of
1:25:31
all, is sent to Park Lane Special Hospital in Liverpool.
1:25:33
And just like Broadmoor, it's the kind of hospital that
1:25:35
is... Well, it's not a prison,
1:25:37
but it's also not a traditional hospital. He's
1:25:40
transferred eventually to Rampton Secure Hospital.
1:25:43
All this happens, by the way, about the same time
1:25:45
that the Yorkshire Riffer is on trial, which is why
1:25:48
most people don't know about him. It was
1:25:50
not the high-profile trial, even though he killed
1:25:52
far more. So that is
1:25:55
it. He's still in there. He's
1:25:57
still alive. In December 1983... there
1:26:00
was an inquiry and it
1:26:03
overturned his conviction for the
1:26:05
residential home. So immediately 15
1:26:08
manslaughter things got taken off
1:26:10
him. And this is because there was a
1:26:12
big investigation at the time by The Sunday
1:26:15
Times, who said that the police had kind
1:26:17
of coerced this out of him. They basically
1:26:19
went, how can a boy who's disabled and
1:26:21
has got one arm that doesn't work properly
1:26:23
hold paraffin and cycle three miles, which I
1:26:25
think is ableist shit. Well, yeah,
1:26:27
it can because you did. Yeah, exactly. So
1:26:30
they said, oh, there's too much,
1:26:32
you know, his timelines don't make
1:26:34
sense. He wasn't in the right
1:26:36
places at the right time. And
1:26:39
we don't believe that he could cycle
1:26:41
that far with some paraffin. So they
1:26:43
said that there was basically enough doubt
1:26:45
for it to be overturned, but he
1:26:48
was still guilty of the other 15.
1:26:50
So he just has just 15 manslaughter
1:26:53
and the 11, sorry, were
1:26:55
appealed. Now, in that article
1:26:57
by The Sunday Times, they say that Ronald
1:27:00
Segar, the superintendent,
1:27:03
had sort of falsified stuff or
1:27:05
exaggerated or coerced him. Segar
1:27:08
went, okay, well, obviously, print a retraction. That's
1:27:10
not true. And they were like, we'll print
1:27:12
a retraction. And but there was something they
1:27:14
wouldn't do. So he sued them for libel
1:27:16
and he won successfully in
1:27:19
1987. And they eventually printed a
1:27:21
retraction as well as the exceptions. So that
1:27:23
is like one of the most
1:27:25
prolific British serial killers ever.
1:27:28
And we've only just heard of him. That's
1:27:31
mad, isn't it? Yeah. We don't do
1:27:33
many arsonists. I wonder why that is. Don't
1:27:36
know. Because it
1:27:38
gets used to get overshadowed by other stuff.
1:27:41
Yeah. Isn't it weird though, that like, he's
1:27:43
killing that many people and to me, like,
1:27:45
there's no good way of dying in a
1:27:47
tragic circumstance, obviously, but like, burning
1:27:49
to death or, you know, any of that stuff seems just
1:27:52
horrific. But because it's not like, seen
1:27:54
as a violent act, I don't know, because you're
1:27:56
not stabbed, or, you know, shot or something
1:27:59
like that, people don't know. just didn't give as much
1:28:01
as the shit or strangled. It's
1:28:03
like it's not, it's like it's another thing doing it. Do
1:28:05
you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, like the fire's
1:28:07
done it. Yeah, exactly. So it's a fire that is the
1:28:10
cult. Yeah. Horrible.
1:28:12
It's really horrible, really bleak. And I cannot
1:28:14
believe he's 19 and one of the most.
1:28:16
Did not enjoy. No, I did warn you.
1:28:19
I thought you were gonna hate this one. I didn't like that. As
1:28:22
soon as I was, I think I was watching
1:28:24
something. It was like an 11 elderly man. Oh
1:28:26
God. Oh God. Rachel's gone, she's gone with
1:28:28
this. I hate it. Well,
1:28:31
that was peated in self-presence. Mailbag will be
1:28:33
next episode. Cause that went on a bit.
1:28:35
We didn't realize it was gonna be this
1:28:37
many, even though it's an incredibly prolific killer.
1:28:39

1:29:04
You're choosing not to find the ticket. It's so annoying.
1:29:06
I know exactly what you mean. I had so
1:29:08
many the other day. I had like nine in
1:29:10
a day and I was like, I'm gonna run
1:29:12
into a fucking wall at this point. So hard not
1:29:14
to be passive aggressive. So just check my website,
1:29:16
have a look. Have a look, mate. It's
1:29:20
called Peacock. And I think I can officially talk
1:29:22
about what it's about now. So I've been able,
1:29:24
it's been signed off by social workers. It's all
1:29:26
done. Ooh. I know, I'm sure.
1:29:29
It's exciting, isn't it? And I'm collecting- Is it about
1:29:31
me? It's about you. It's been signed up by social
1:29:34
workers, by everyone. It's gone right to the top. King
1:29:36
Charles has got a big fat digits in him. No,
1:29:40
shame for him. I did
1:29:42
actually, this is coming out months later. So
1:29:44
hopefully he's still alive. I don't have to
1:29:46
learn another answer. Anyway.
1:29:49
Well, do you know when it was announced
1:29:51
that King Charles had cancer? Tim
1:29:54
just out of the blue. No one was saying anything about
1:29:56
it. It was the day after. Well,
1:29:58
I'll tell you now, we won't be paying for it. for another
1:30:00
grand funeral. And I went, sorry?
1:30:03
He went, the king? I went, right, okay,
1:30:05
just out of nowhere. I saw, I'm sure
1:30:07
it's fake news, but I saw something where it's like, you
1:30:10
know, cause he's a bit of a herbalist and
1:30:12
things like that, that he's going to avoid chemotherapy
1:30:14
and do it like herbaly. And I was like,
1:30:16
fucking please don't, I'm an
1:30:18
anti-vax king. It's like, this country has been
1:30:20
through enough. I really hope it's fake news
1:30:23
is what I'm saying. Please
1:30:26
don't get in contact with me about holistic medicine, listen. Don't
1:30:28
get in touch with us about the king either. You can
1:30:30
do what you want in combination with what we know to
1:30:32
be the most effective medical treatment in the world. You know
1:30:35
the one argument I have, I'm sick of hearing? Well,
1:30:38
well, has he been on the way, how long has he
1:30:40
been on the waiting list for? It's all right for some.
1:30:43
It's like, of course he's not going
1:30:45
to have an H-F treatment. He's the king of England.
1:30:47
That is so mad that they think like, oh
1:30:49
yeah, he's gonna pop down to fucking Hometon and
1:30:51
see if he can fit it, yeah, obviously he's
1:30:53
not. That's all, let him pay for it. Yeah?
1:30:58
Well, we pay for it, is the issue. He's the
1:31:00
king of England. He's the king
1:31:02
of England. Of course he's not gonna be
1:31:04
down fucking Whips Cross. Right,
1:31:07
and everyone has been, it will come
1:31:09
in easy, it's just absolutely anybody. Listen
1:31:12
to me say bye.
