  • The Trial That Never Was

    The Trial That Never Was
    May 29 2024
    Inspired by the discovery of a report written by a senior detective into the murder of Sandra Rivett and months away from the 50th anniversary of the crime we present The Trial of Lord Lucan. Co-presenters Caroline Cheetham and Stephen Wright visit the original crime scene in Belgravia, central London, and discuss the importance of the police document. They also look at the background to the unprecedented, high society murder which scandalised the UK in the 1970s and which has captivated the world, to this day. The duo also meet two real-life, eminent barristers who will argue the case in the podcasts. Max Hardy, who is acting as ‘prosecutor’ & Edward Henry KC, who is ‘defending’ Lucan. Using exclusive, never before seen documents and mesmerising testimony, Caroline Cheetham, Stephen Wright and some of the world's most revered legal minds take part in a week long audio event to determine Lucan's fate... and YOU are the jury.

    Regina vs VII Earl of Lucan
    Jun 3 2024
    Inspired by the discovery of a report written by a senior detective into the murder of Sandra Rivett and months away from the 50th anniversary of the crime we present The Trial of Lord Lucan. Co-presenters Caroline Cheetham and Stephen Wright discuss the importance of the police document that has surfaced after decades gathering dust. Voiced by an actor the words of Det Chief Supt Roy Ranson go into great detail about the events of the night of the murder. The report includes references to a key prosecution witness who had a crush on Lucan and did not tell the police the ‘whole truth’ about their encounter hours after the Sandra Rivett death, and how the fugitive’s other friends in the ‘International Socialite Set’ were reluctant to assist detectives. Listen to the whole series this week as we put Lord Lucan on trial and remember YOU are the jury. To get involved in this innovative True Crime event, head to dailymail.co.uk/lucan immediately.

Endlessly fascinating case

I enjoyed listening to all the evidence, some of which I'd never heard before. The case was presented in an interesting way. The presence of adverts during the podcast was a bit annoying as I had to forward through them. Hopefully the verdict episode will be up soon.
