Send us a text The Skirrid Inn is said to be the most haunted and the oldest in Wales with a history that stretches over centuries. Once a court house and a place of execution, it's little wonder that ghosts are said to walk it's corridors. At one point, the infamous Hanging Judge was said to have graced it's hallways, and hundreds are said to have died. But is this a story based in history, or is it stranger than fiction?

Send us a text On the 15th of February 2003, Louise and her baby daughter Tia were murdered at the hands of Louise's partner. This episode tells Louise's story and considers whether 23-years is a fair sentence. I want to offer a word of caution before you get into the episode, because this case is horrific. It’s containing domestic abuse, drug abuse, potential SA and the murder of a woman and young baby. This episode is not appropriate for many, and if any of these topics might be triggering, I’d urge you to stop the episode now. Where you can find us?
