  • The Perfect Score

    The Perfect Score
    Feb 26 2025
    If you worked for the Bank of England incinerating battered and bruised banknotes that were being taken out of circulation, would you be tempted to take one? Or ten?! What about ten thousand? This is exactly what a crack team of employees did at the Bank of England's incinerator plant at Debden in Loughton, Essex between 1988 and 1992. Demonstrating that there is no 'I' in 'team', this gang of criminals worked together to steal hundreds of thousands of pounds under the noses of supervisors and auditors... Our second case takes us to a warehouse just outside of Heathrow Airport, where a cache of rare books are being stored before being transported to California. After breaking in, a gang of expert criminals go on to spend five hours and fifteen minutes going through them one by one until they find what they are looking for... Join us as we delve into the world of audacious heists...

  • Debbie Leitch: Left For Dead

    Debbie Leitch: Left For Dead
    Feb 19 2025
    This week we head to the seaside resort of Blackpool. Home to Blackpool Pleasure Beach and the iconic Blackpool Tower, the town attracts millions of visitors every year. And it's not just tourists that flock to this quintessentially British holiday destination. Every year, thousands of people move to Blackpool from other parts of the UK. In 2016, 21-year-old Debbie Leitch and her mother, Elaine Clarke, moved there from Leeds, with Elaine's three other children. The move should have signalled the beginning of an exciting new chapter in their lives, but for Debbie, who had Down Syndrome, it heralded the beginning of the end when her life spiralled into a downward descent into hell where neglect, abuse and isolation reigned supreme. This is an infuriating story which contains descriptions of neglect and abuse that some listeners may find distressing. Listener discretion is advised. We have made a donation to the Downs Syndrome Association (Home - Downs Syndrome Association) in honour of Debbie Leitch - if you are able to and would like to donate too, please hit the link below: Make a donation to the Down's Syndrome Association If you would like to access exclusive bonus content and support us on Patreon, you can find us here: www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast If you would like to GIFT a Patreon membership to a special someone, head to www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast/gift If you would like to buy us a coffee (or wine!), hit the link below: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw Get your merch here: www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears - check her work out at www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

  • A Strange Coincidence

    A Strange Coincidence
    Feb 12 2025
    This week we take a look at the concept of coincidences in true crime... Our first case takes us to the Aviemore Station Hotel in the Scottish Highlands. When fire ripped through the hotel in 1950, it ended in tragedy. The community was rocked to its core. And when history repeated itself forty five years later, people were left asking whether this was merely a coincidence, or whether something more sinister was at play... Our second case takes us to the bustling Birmingham suburb of Erdington. In 1974 a 20-year-old nurse went missing in eerily similar circumstances to a previous missing person's case more than a hundred years hence... Could it be that the two cases were related?
