Speaking. of grabbing an intruder by the nether regions to thwart an attack, there was a case about 30 years ago in the state of Mississippi. An older African-American lady, Curtescine F. Lloyd, was awakened in the middle of the night by a young rapist. She grabbed him down there, and "I just kept twisting." She wrestled him out of her bedroom, all the while mashing his privates to bits, and he began begging for mercy. Ms. Lloyd retorted that he hadn't been about to show her any mercy. He was hitting her the entire time, but she had ... the upper hand, so to speak. She eventually dragged him outside, "twisting" all the while, and his screams of pain alerted the neighbors. She then let him go, saying she was going to fetch her gun and call the cops, in that order. His cops easily tracked him down because his name was written inside the trousers he'd left in her bedroom. His feisty would-be victim was immortalized by the Chicago columnist, Mike Royko, in an article entitled, "She Took the Law into Her Own Hands." My heroine.
So, I had to look this up, and I didn't think it was possible for you to undersell how amazing she is. Highlight of the story: He said, `How can I get out of your house if you won't let me go? How can I get out? I can't get out.' "I said, `Break out, son-of-a-bitch, you broke in, didn't you?'" LEGEND!

@@novacraft8693 aye I do know that 🤣 I'm middle aged an my dad's old 🤣 he is a few years younger than Lucan, but looked a bit more wethered for his age after leaving the army 🤣
@@bobfg3130 my dad was working in a pub in Newhaven (england) down by the ferry port, where the car was found abandoned. I think that's the only reason why he drew any attention from anybody, because all the locals knew who my dad was and he had a Scottish accent 🤣
Wow. Lord Lucan is just one of those things that if you grow up in the UK, you will probably just be vaguely aware of as a minimum. I knew he disappeared but always just assumed he ran off with his secretary or something. Interesting story and great video thanks. Oh BTW, he could totally still be alive at 87. Appreciate he’s probably a statistical anomaly but my grandad is 89 and still goes hiking in the peaks every weekend haha.
The 3rd Lord Lucan is famous (infamous) for evicting his Irish tenant farmers off his land during the potato famine and then went on to give the incorrect order to his hated brother-in-law, Lord Cardigan, which led to the Charge of the Light Brigade.
Yes, please! The wildest ones are where some family members are in on it, but not all of them!! (Which, in fairness - we do all have that one cousin or auntie who’s always ready to share the latest hot goss)
There's one where a man and wife pretended the man was dead for the insurance. He had apparently gone out to sea in a canoe and never came back. I believe the genius was found in his own attic...
I was in the Arizona version of the Navel Cadets! We put wheels and sails on canoes and tried to navigate the dangers of meth filled Apache Junction. Ahhh childhood!
I feel that this channel should look into the story of Portlock Alaska, seems perfectly made for decoding the unkown. It's a good mix of real-life monster mystery with some good evidence to actually back up the scariest parts.
i clicked on thinking this Was an episode of Casual Criminalist. And while i get the focus is on the mystery of Lucan's disappearance, i still feel we have to add that the only evidence we have that his wife had any sort of mental illness, was Lord Lucan himself. Sadly, back then a wife could be committed simply on her husband's say so. If she was crazy it was likely he drove her to that point. The day of their wedding he spent the whole day gambling with his mates. At bedtime he was angry about how much he had lost and when Veronica asked how much was left in their account, he informed her there was only 1pound left. After the divorce, he was beyond broke, resentful that she had custody, angry that he had to pay for a nanny despite the fact that a nanny was only required b/c he convinced the court his wife was incompetent. He had motive for days. Guilty, guilty, guilty. Please do a Casual Criminalist episode so both vitims get the attention they deserve. Thanks
Lord Melancholy: "I grow tired of life. I shall venture forth to that which comes next." Jeeves: "Very good, my Lord, I'll have the ship brought around. Will my Lord be needing his propellers sharpened?"
Omg Simon.... Your tangent on the lords and all that... Your words about "stuff that probably would have got my head chopped off a few hundred years ago..." ..... totally priceless. 😅🤣
Someone suggested an episode on Portlock Alaska. Yes please. A truly creepy place and very mysterious history. It would fit nicely on your channel. Whoever's currently chained up in the writer's dungeon, get on it!
Hey, I am old now but was a young kid from Canada living in London When this happened. It was a huge story at the time as it was a sordid tale involving the upper classes.
Lord Lucan's suicide seems the most plausible solution to this mystery. 1). Lord Lucan had a boat slipped at Newhaven, where the Corsair was found, but the boat was missing after the murder. He was an inveterate gambler, & the idea that he escaped to parts unknown & abandoned his destructive habit completely is not believable. Even protected by his friends, he would have eventually been sighted somewhere gambling, & he was not. Lord Lucan took his boat out into the English Channel & scuttled it, & "went down with his ship". His sleeping pills & the vodka from the empty bottle found in the Corsair's trunk would have helped to ease him on his way. Mystery solved.
@@nightowl_759 Exactly. A leopard doesn't change its spots. Also, as much as he cared for his children, at some point, he would surely have tried to contact them. We're on the same page. Thanks for your comment.
@@Simon-ho6ly You certainly have a point. The fact that Lord Lucan's boat was missing really only leads to 2 possibilities - escape to mainland Europe, or lost at sea. I believe the tone of his last letters to his family & friends supports a suicide, because his request to explain "paranoia" to his children & the overall finality of the letters indicates his state of mind, with intent to never be heard from again. Really, he had it all, but lost it, & he knew it. There was only 1 way out for him, & he knew that, too. He tied up as many loose ends as he could, then quietly made his final "roll of the dice", & his exit. Thanks for your comment.
Lord Lucan looks like a younger Brad Pitt. If this were 10 or 15 years ago, I'm sure he would've made the perfect casting choice to play Lord Lucan in a movie.
Not relevant to the video's topic, but I feel like one day Simon's children are going to treasure all this footage of a young man that resembles their dear old dad going off on tangents about his babies waking him early, wreaking havoc while they potty train, and building bridges with toy blocks.
I think about this all the time. I also think they'll laugh and be like "how did people watch such low quality video?!? It's not even available in 18k!"
Families losing their entire wealth in one generation is sadly super common. My great-grandfather apparently did great with property sales out in Cali during the boom... guess what his sons did with all that $$? Gambling and alcohol took them down right quick.
I always wondered if he was innocent, and what happened was just his bad luck. I always leaned towards that he came in after the murder. He was there, but since he was watching the house wouldn't he have been there several times a week? He saw someone around the house, went to investigate. The murder happened, he entered the house after and his wife saw him. She blamed him, he panicked. Went to his friends for help. He would look guilty due to his estrangement and previous statements so who would believe him? HE went to his friends for help, the "old boys" club backed him and got him out of the country. Probably shaved the moustache. Who was the real murderer, who knows. The mysterious man? Some burglar who was surprised by the nanny? Stranger things have happened. Or he could have gone in with some hairbrained idea to beam his wife with a lead pipe and cocked the whole murder attempt, his bad luck getting him again. The world will never know.
Lord Lucan was shagging the Nanny. His wife found out, and attacked the Nanny, Lucan tried to stop her, but it was too late, she was dead. Lucan blamed himself, so he went on the lam, with the lead pipe, (to deliberately incriminate himself) so that everybody would think it was him and not his wife. Veronica would be sure to stick to the story, because the alternative would mean she'd be banged up. Simples.
@@fainitesbarley2245 some good soap-opera-ing there, brother. But truthfully, lady lucan wouldn't have been capable or in fact even desiring of that. Even though no body ever mentions as much, I've got to wonder what upper-class type snatch he was sure to have been keeping on the side. Wouldn't have been nanny, too much of a snob and a little too close to home, the place he clearly preferred casino clubs to. Lady Lucan just wanted some peace and quiet from hubby's abuse.
The benefit of an 'upside down' house is that if you have a balcony or a roof terrace then in a normal house they lead off your bedroom so it's hard to use it as a social space. In an 'upside down' house, the roof terrace/balcony is off the living room allowing it to be shared by everyone (without them traipsing through your bedroom which is definitely weird) :)
Maybe check out "Deke" Slayton's final flight. Allegedly, it happened hundreds of miles away from him and 5 hours after he'd passed away. Also, this allegedly occurred using his plane which was in a museum with the engine removed. 😳
They asked me to play Bond also but I was busy parachuting pianos into the jungles of Africa so the villagers can finally hear beethoven for the first time, a lords work is never done.
Just imagine being him if he was innocent though. Spying on his crazy ex wife because he was worried for his kids, while doing so sees her and her nanny being attacked. Comes to the rescue just to be accused by his dazed and confused wife. Lives the rest of his life on the run never getting to see his kids again being forever known as a murderer. I doubt that's the case as usually the most plausible scenario is the right one, but it isn't impossible and crazier things have happened. I couldn't imagine what that would be like.
I'd love to see Simon do an episode on the relevant channel about the Rise and Fall of the Vanderbilt family. They went from massively rich to broke as a joke within a generation. Edit: I grew up 30 mins away from the Biltmore Estate in WNC, which was built by a Vanderbilt.
"Mandatory conscription is a good idea because I had a good time in the cadets" probably isn't the best way to sell your point. Especially if your point includes the government forcing it's citizens into the military against their will.
Yes, also, how would people afford to live? I would love for the government to offer to subsidize one day a week of work, for anyone who chooses to “volunteer” (but with subsidized pay) for any one of a list of pre-approved non-profits, doing good works. Could be helping dogs and cats get walks and pets, that are in shelters, or could be reading aloud to people in hospital, or any one of a number of helpful things - could go a long way towards addressing under-employment in a time of such dramatic/rapid inflation, and would definitely help people improve our mental health, by seeing ourselves doing something that’s helping others in need. Should absolutely be optional though, not mandatory, IMO
Having done my national army service in the Greek engineers(demolition) back in 2003 for 17 months, i also agree that it helps build character, in general. It did much good for me, anyway. I mean, the guard postings and multi hour patrols in the dead of night were shit, but really, 10/10, would recommend, especially for sheltered individuals like myself.
According to the 2 part docudrama about Lord Lucan, he was also taking uppers, downers and whatever else he needed to continue gambling and loosing money. He would have made anyone absolutely crazy. A truly horrible, odious person. So sad that he got away scot free and the poor innocent nanny was killed. Here’s hoping he never had a moment’s peace worrying about the law looking for him. ✨✨
Simon you are awesome. Like,not just as a fantastic presenter (I suppose you're like three presenters. The cold clinical FactBoi, the absolute legendary insanity in BB and the wonderful place in between the two we get here and in Casual Criminalist. Love them all) but you have an incredible ability to find equally incredible people to work with. Whatever criticisms can be given to any one of your eight thousand channels, I fail to see what fault can be found with any one of the writers or editors you work with. You have an amazing talent for connecting with really interesting, funny, diligent writer/researchers. You should do tours in the basement, I'd love to meet any one of the fascinating prisoners you've collected.
At 7:32 in, Simon is riffing on National Service. Germany either still has it, or only stopped recently and they have at least one non military option; their national disaster recovery service - the people who respond to floods, building colapses and so forth - staff through national service. Some even reenlist after their mandatory service is done.
Germany suspended military conscription in the early to mid 2000s, I believe, but it's still on the books. They just don't draft people anymore, but they could reactivate conscription if they needed to. Wether the germans would accept such a thing is a different matter, of course
Upside down house … I had a friend who lived on the side of a steep hill, the road ran along top of the hill. So all the entrances to the house were on top of the house at road level, including the kitchen and the bedrooms were below, lower down the the slope. When you see it from the road, it makes sense.
This was fun, but if you'd watched the documentary made from Lady Lucan's perspective, you might not be quite so snarky about her alleged mental problems. She was married to a malignant narcissist; they gaslight, in addition to playing other mind games with, their targets. True, she doesn't seem to have ever been very stable, but that's likely why he chose her. It would have made her easier to control.
I whole-heartedly agree! Link to video: ruclips.net/video/nVNeF92POP4/видео.html Another suggestion: the interview / recollections of Lady Lucan (filmed just months before she killed herself). Link to video: ruclips.net/video/nVNeF92POP4/видео.html
I was five when this happened, and I remember being really freaked out by this story, and scared of bumping into Lucan the murderer. It still raises the hair on the back of my neck when I think about this case.
Yarrrrrrr is scurrrrevy a big problem forrrr ya lass! That was my best attempt at a text version of the Cornwall accent.................. Sorry in advance X(
I'm a new fan of this channel. Love your tangents, my brain works the same way. Ian Fleming lived 10 mins walk from John Aspinall in same village. Gambling law changed and was called Aspinall law. Lucan tricked Veronica and took her to a mental hospital but she refused and they could not force her as she was not “mental”. Only two nanny’s. He was watching/stalking his wife. John Aspinall personal secretary arranged for his children to visit South Africa, where Lucan would watch them from a distance. This was the secretary words and she stated this on local news and can be found on you tube. She kept it secret till John Aspinall died. I’ve watched loads of docs, worked at Aspinall zoo and live in same area. R.I.P Sandra R.I.P Veronica
Him fleeing does smack of guilt, but it might not be so cut and dry. There is still a possibility that it could have been staged by the wife, in an effort to completely destroy him, by having him arrested for the murder of the nanny, and self inflicted wounds to herself. First off she had issues that required a court ordered nanny. It was established the "light was not working" yet she ran into a pub saying 'he killed the nanny." She was able to discern this in mere seconds, in a darkened room, while being attacked? There are variables not considered
I was also surprised that the possibility of the wife killing Lord Lucan (or having him killed) wasn't mentioned. Her stranged husband was stalking her/her children and trying to take her kids away. She had motive to frame him for murder or kill him for that matter. I'm sure that isn't the most likely scenario but for her to not even be mentioned as a possible suspect was surprising.
I don't see how he could have known she was being attacked in a dark basement from his car. Unless he just happened to see the guy entering the house. Also unless the basement had an exterior door, there's no way he could have be entered the house after the attack was happening, I would think. And if there was another person, why didn't he confront them abort entering his house. My only doubt is that he had the chance to kill his wife still if he wanted to, yet didn't . Unless he decided not to after killing the nanny. Which would be dumb if your trying to commit murder. You don't leave any witnesses. Dead men tell no tales, or dead women in this case. Which would have allow him to create an alibi. If he did want to kill his wife he should have actually spent more than 5 seconds on the plan. or at least a better way of getting custody.
@@fukkitful there was an outside entry to the basement. While the lightbulb had been removed in the basement, it could have been done after their murder by Lucan in case his children came down. Lady Lucan and some earlier nannies stated that he would park outside the house and watch it/them in a creepy way, so he could have seen someone entering the house, then followed them to see what they were doing. She never explained how she knew Sandra was dead, nor how her blood got into the basement unless she went down which she denied. Never forget she was hit over the head and may have lost consciousness, can we believe everything she said. The only things we are sure of are certain facts. We don’t know when the attack started because mother and daughter disagree, we do though know when it ended because of witnesses in the Plumbers Arms, outside of that it is evidence that we need to rely on, though not necessarily the spin the police put on it. One fact about Lucan is that he had a phobia of blood, and yet the murder was barbaric. Also be aware about Lady Lucans general behaviour. She rejected her children throughout their lives, probably due to postpartum depression, so much so that when her 14yr daughter came to see her for the first time in several years she said not today you haven’t made an appointment and wouldn’t let her in the house. Her three children though did pay the rent on her apartment until she died.
There come moments in a chap's life "Milestones" First kiss Losing one's virginity These milestones are best seen as growing up - a journey to manhood . Then there are those truly depressing milestone moments that mark one's way to the grave . That time when a heavily pregnant 20-year-old lady stood up and offers her seat the moment you step on a bus, after a lifetime of offering up one's seat to a lady, this will come as a true slap in the face ... I went home and cried; a slip of girl just took my title of "Gentleman" and placed it on the shelf . However, that pales when I heard (an intelligent) Simon kicks off this video by saying he never heard of Lord Lucan? . WTF !!!! . The past is another country I lived there, it's a lonely place, come visit, don't panic if the door closes behind you
I keep discovering new things that you do. You have so many podcasts and shows! It just makes me think of the exchange between the main character and Rob Lowe's character on Thank You For Smoking MAIN CHARACTER: When do you find time to sleep? ROB LOWE:...Sunday.
Now you just need to do the Charge of the Light Brigade. So you can bring in the "other" Lord Lucan. (Or as his troopers referred to him, "lord look-on").
Hey Simon! Big fan here. I’m an audio engineer. Please could you perhaps possibly maybe consider cutting some low end out of your mic. 150-300Hz could be notched down some and a HPF set around 150Hz. That or back the mic off a further 6” (ish). I love the sound of your videos but since you’ve added the SM7B, the vocals are boomy and hard to listen to on some speaker systems. Love your work across the various channels. :)
The house of lords isnt just inheritable now. There's laws dictating the percentage of inherited peers in the house of lords , it has to be below a certain number ! Cmon Simon Im a Canadian and I know that haha
Don’t be so sure about the James Bond offer, Burt Reynolds was also asked to play the role too. He turned it down because he felt Bond should be played by a Brit. Remember, they chose George Lazenby too
I remember the year we moved to the UK, it was some time after the initial crime but there were still CONSTANT "lord lucan sighting" nrwspaper front page headlines, so anyone over 55 or so couldn't help but have heard of the whole lucky Lucan folklore. If you were ever going to make a convincing retro tv show/movie about uk in that era, gosh, a "lord lucan" story on the front of a Sun or Daily Mail would whisk you right back to the early/mid 70s as surely as flared jeans and nude-toned pantyhose.
No offense to the woman, but Lady Lucan's account of what happened doesn't make a lick of sense. "My estranged husband killed our nanny, tried to kill me, but after I fought him off, we had a pleasant conversation where he totally believed I would cover this all up for him." Also, a small note, but a weird one: in the one letter he says he wants to avoid being tried for *attempted* murder. If he did it, did he not realize the nanny died? Saying he had their blood on him when everyone agrees he was there is not evidence of anything and there was a different, unrelated lead pipe in his car? Honestly, kind of sounds like he was being framed but chose to run instead of fighting a legal system that had already screwed him out of custody of his kids. But, that's just my two cents.
In the one letter he also says Veronica hates him and will try to pin it on him no matter what actually happened. Even though he wrote the letters after escaping the scene, seems kind of odd that he would trust her immediately after trying to kill her with a pipe and after killing someone else. Also saying she thinks he killed himself by jumping into propellers seems kinda crazy, unless there was some context that wasn't covered or I missed.
7:30 on conscription: I used to be strongly against it. Then I volunteered for the military and saw how it changed me to be more disciplined and able to understand people from other backgrounds and viewpoints. Now as I look at all the chaos and partisanship through assorted radical politics - I feel like conscription would be a good thing to bring back. If people had to spend a few years dealing with each other, they'd had a lot fewer crazy ideas about 'those other folks'... As for 'hampers creativity' - Israel actually helps show that it doesn't. Israel is amazingly strong in tech and creative endeavors despite universal conscription. If anything - it teaches creative people how to work with others and thus bring their ideas to fruition.
Draft debates are really interesting. Personally, I feel like there should be some kind of draft when you graduate from high school. I don't necessarily mean a military draft, but more of a mandated community service for X amount of years.
Only if you get the benefits of a veteran, like medical care and schooling. You can't expect people to delay careers and education for nothing. It works better to pay for a medical education, for instance, if the person then puts in x number of years with the needy, or the needy in your state if you went to a state school. Mandated community service is a common criminal sentence. Of course non-criminals would hate it. Many universities want evidence of community service for entrance to show you are well-rounded and responsible, but a lot of non-well-rounded and irresponsible teens suit themselves about how to occupy their out of school life. One should consider the cost of keeping angry or bored, and sexually active, 18 year olds on task. How many trained adults would that take? Spend a day subbing at a high school and see. And what about kids who don't graduate, who leave at 16? There are as many ways for teens to slip loose as there are kids that age, and a lot of parents willing to move their family to another country. Where I live, kids are encouraged to do things for the community, so the result is positive. Bludgeon them into it and the result would be catastrophic. I don't know why anyone would think that would be positive for the kids or the community.
@@653j521 yeah. Community service typically gives and gives back. i.e. tutoring, or inherent things that won't help rich men get richer and this, is community rather then commercialized. -- just because it's shiny doesn't make it better.
I agree with you on the military service, but I think it should be a choice between military and civil service (where you help a local community) with the same discipline and fitness regime in both.
My brain took some liberties. But what if Lucan hired someone to attack the house only for him to sweep in and save the day but then things got murderous out of hand? Definitely fun fiction at least 😅

A proper gentlemen always has his propellers sharp, his coat ironed and his drinks stiff.
You could easily re-purpose this episode on The Casual Criminalist. Add a few memes, some new crimey music, and, voila!, brand new episode.
Omg Simon.... Your tangent on the lords and all that... Your words about "stuff that probably would have got my head chopped off a few hundred years ago..." ..... totally priceless. 😅🤣
Someone suggested an episode on Portlock Alaska. Yes please. A truly creepy place and very mysterious history. It would fit nicely on your channel.
Whoever's currently chained up in the writer's dungeon, get on it!
Decoding the casual unknown criminalist
Is it just me that thanks this episode belongs on Criminal Casualist?
I just made popcorn, perfect timing Simon. Brilliant.
There's a reason RUclips gave him 300 channels 😉
He doesn't write these.
Brilliant
@Gene Soriano, Autor I never implied he did. He says the writer's name on every video so not sure what your point is here.
Hey, I am old now but was a young kid from Canada living in London When this happened. It was a huge story at the time as it was a sordid tale involving the upper classes.
Yes and the upper class helped Lucan, if that had been a nobody those he visited would have been arrested for questioning at the very least
Lord Lucan's suicide seems the most plausible solution to this mystery. 1). Lord Lucan had a boat slipped at Newhaven, where the Corsair was found, but the boat was missing after the murder. He was an inveterate gambler, & the idea that he escaped to parts unknown & abandoned his destructive habit completely is not believable. Even protected by his friends, he would have eventually been sighted somewhere gambling, & he was not. Lord Lucan took his boat out into the English Channel & scuttled it, & "went down with his ship". His sleeping pills & the vodka from the empty bottle found in the Corsair's trunk would have helped to ease him on his way. Mystery solved.
There is also the fact that a once lord turned peasant doesn’t seem like his thing either.
@@nightowl_759 Exactly. A leopard doesn't change its spots. Also, as much as he cared for his children, at some point, he would surely have tried to contact them. We're on the same page. Thanks for your comment.
Im skeptical on scuttled but could easily have gotten into trouble in some form out in the channel which even then was a busy shipping lane
@@Simon-ho6ly You certainly have a point. The fact that Lord Lucan's boat was missing really only leads to 2 possibilities - escape to mainland Europe, or lost at sea. I believe the tone of his last letters to his family & friends supports a suicide, because his request to explain "paranoia" to his children & the overall finality of the letters indicates his state of mind, with intent to never be heard from again. Really, he had it all, but lost it, & he knew it. There was only 1 way out for him, & he knew that, too. He tied up as many loose ends as he could, then quietly made his final "roll of the dice", & his exit. Thanks for your comment.
Lord Lucan looks like a younger Brad Pitt. If this were 10 or 15 years ago, I'm sure he would've made the perfect casting choice to play Lord Lucan in a movie.
Lucan did actually apply as a replacement for James Bond but got turned down
Was so gonna say that.
i first thought he looks like freddy mercury
Not relevant to the video's topic, but I feel like one day Simon's children are going to treasure all this footage of a young man that resembles their dear old dad going off on tangents about his babies waking him early, wreaking havoc while they potty train, and building bridges with toy blocks.
It's a tangent! Perfectly appropriate and I for one enjoyed it!
I think about this all the time. I also think they'll laugh and be like "how did people watch such low quality video?!? It's not even available in 18k!"
Families losing their entire wealth in one generation is sadly super common. My great-grandfather apparently did great with property sales out in Cali during the boom... guess what his sons did with all that $$? Gambling and alcohol took them down right quick.
In love the blaze creeping into every other channel
Love this channel, I listen to these at work and I'll tell ya they have made my days fly by. Amazing jobs all of you!!!
Really enjoyed this. Well done!
I always wondered if he was innocent, and what happened was just his bad luck. I always leaned towards that he came in after the murder. He was there, but since he was watching the house wouldn't he have been there several times a week? He saw someone around the house, went to investigate. The murder happened, he entered the house after and his wife saw him. She blamed him, he panicked. Went to his friends for help. He would look guilty due to his estrangement and previous statements so who would believe him? HE went to his friends for help, the "old boys" club backed him and got him out of the country. Probably shaved the moustache. Who was the real murderer, who knows. The mysterious man? Some burglar who was surprised by the nanny? Stranger things have happened. Or he could have gone in with some hairbrained idea to beam his wife with a lead pipe and cocked the whole murder attempt, his bad luck getting him again. The world will never know.
He attacked his wife. She knew who he was!
He failed to kill her.
Lord Lucan was shagging the Nanny. His wife found out, and attacked the Nanny, Lucan tried to stop her, but it was too late, she was dead. Lucan blamed himself, so he went on the lam, with the lead pipe, (to deliberately incriminate himself) so that everybody would think it was him and not his wife. Veronica would be sure to stick to the story, because the alternative would mean she'd be banged up. Simples.
@@nodiggity9472
If you believe that you’ll believe anything.
@@fainitesbarley2245 Try me.
@@fainitesbarley2245 some good soap-opera-ing there, brother. But truthfully, lady lucan wouldn't have been capable or in fact even desiring of that. Even though no body ever mentions as much, I've got to wonder what upper-class type snatch he was sure to have been keeping on the side. Wouldn't have been nanny, too much of a snob and a little too close to home, the place he clearly preferred casino clubs to.
Lady Lucan just wanted some peace and quiet from hubby's abuse.
The benefit of an 'upside down' house is that if you have a balcony or a roof terrace then in a normal house they lead off your bedroom so it's hard to use it as a social space. In an 'upside down' house, the roof terrace/balcony is off the living room allowing it to be shared by everyone (without them traipsing through your bedroom which is definitely weird) :)
My best friends grandma is 89. She survived COVID! She's still going strong. My great grandma is 94 and is still in good shape. You'd be surprised
Binge watching all my favourites, CC,BB and this one, all with mega long episodes! What a great week!
Maybe check out "Deke" Slayton's final flight. Allegedly, it happened hundreds of miles away from him and 5 hours after he'd passed away. Also, this allegedly occurred using his plane which was in a museum with the engine removed. 😳
They asked me to play Bond also but I was busy parachuting pianos into the jungles of Africa so the villagers can finally hear beethoven for the first time, a lords work is never done.
Just imagine being him if he was innocent though. Spying on his crazy ex wife because he was worried for his kids, while doing so sees her and her nanny being attacked. Comes to the rescue just to be accused by his dazed and confused wife. Lives the rest of his life on the run never getting to see his kids again being forever known as a murderer. I doubt that's the case as usually the most plausible scenario is the right one, but it isn't impossible and crazier things have happened. I couldn't imagine what that would be like.
I'd love to see Simon do an episode on the relevant channel about the Rise and Fall of the Vanderbilt family. They went from massively rich to broke as a joke within a generation.
Edit: I grew up 30 mins away from the Biltmore Estate in WNC, which was built by a Vanderbilt.
This is definitely the most chill of the channels.
In the original incarnation of Spitting Image the puppet show based around satire Lord Lucan used to often cameo in the show as a bartender
"Mandatory conscription is a good idea because I had a good time in the cadets" probably isn't the best way to sell your point. Especially if your point includes the government forcing it's citizens into the military against their will.
Agreed
Yes, also, how would people afford to live? I would love for the government to offer to subsidize one day a week of work, for anyone who chooses to “volunteer” (but with subsidized pay) for any one of a list of pre-approved non-profits, doing good works. Could be helping dogs and cats get walks and pets, that are in shelters, or could be reading aloud to people in hospital, or any one of a number of helpful things - could go a long way towards addressing under-employment in a time of such dramatic/rapid inflation, and would definitely help people improve our mental health, by seeing ourselves doing something that’s helping others in need. Should absolutely be optional though, not mandatory, IMO
@@sarahissersohn5495 I would assume they would pay you. In Switzerland I believe you get 80% of you salary and your employer pays the remaining 20%
The John Stonehouse story would make a great Casual Criminalist episode (without murder) and has a lot of twists to it.
I would 100% watch that video. Must shuffle over to CC to see if it ever came about!
Having done my national army service in the Greek engineers(demolition) back in 2003 for 17 months, i also agree that it helps build character, in general. It did much good for me, anyway. I mean, the guard postings and multi hour patrols in the dead of night were shit, but really, 10/10, would recommend, especially for sheltered individuals like myself.
The last interview with Lady Lucan is on RUclips and well worth a watch.
According to the 2 part docudrama about Lord Lucan, he was also taking uppers, downers and whatever else he needed to continue gambling and loosing money. He would have made anyone absolutely crazy.
A truly horrible, odious person. So sad that he got away scot free and the poor innocent nanny was killed.
Here’s hoping he never had a moment’s peace worrying about the law looking for him. ✨✨
Simon you are awesome. Like,not just as a fantastic presenter (I suppose you're like three presenters. The cold clinical FactBoi, the absolute legendary insanity in BB and the wonderful place in between the two we get here and in Casual Criminalist. Love them all) but you have an incredible ability to find equally incredible people to work with. Whatever criticisms can be given to any one of your eight thousand channels, I fail to see what fault can be found with any one of the writers or editors you work with. You have an amazing talent for connecting with really interesting, funny, diligent writer/researchers.
You should do tours in the basement, I'd love to meet any one of the fascinating prisoners you've collected.
At 7:32 in, Simon is riffing on National Service. Germany either still has it, or only stopped recently and they have at least one non military option; their national disaster recovery service - the people who respond to floods, building colapses and so forth - staff through national service. Some even reenlist after their mandatory service is done.
Germany suspended military conscription in the early to mid 2000s, I believe, but it's still on the books. They just don't draft people anymore, but they could reactivate conscription if they needed to. Wether the germans would accept such a thing is a different matter, of course
Actually Simon would be an excellent Bond villain.
I just can't see Simon as a villan...
Which one?
Oh, his monologue would be ridiculous!
The Tangential Trickster.
Simon's opening monologue begins..
Several tangents later.
Roll end credits
Always good to hear someone who enjoys their job.... nice on Simon...
Upside down house … I had a friend who lived on the side of a steep hill, the road ran along top of the hill. So all the entrances to the house were on top of the house at road level, including the kitchen and the bedrooms were below, lower down the the slope. When you see it from the road, it makes sense.
Loving this new channel
Another Simon channel? At this point I feel like I stalk him with so many channels, but they're all so good. Great writers and well, Simon.
I can’t wash my dishes without listening to Simon.
LOVING the new editing style and additions!
This was fun, but if you'd watched the documentary made from Lady Lucan's perspective, you might not be quite so snarky about her alleged mental problems. She was married to a malignant narcissist; they gaslight, in addition to playing other mind games with, their targets. True, she doesn't seem to have ever been very stable, but that's likely why he chose her. It would have made her easier to control.
Simon's newest diseases: Post-Nasal depression & Price Hysteria
Highly recommend checking out the video on this case by They Got Away With Murder - very different style, equally excellent
I second this!
Yes! They Got Away With Murder is an excellent channel!
I whole-heartedly agree! Link to video: ruclips.net/video/nVNeF92POP4/видео.html
Another suggestion: the interview / recollections of Lady Lucan (filmed just months before she killed herself). Link to video: ruclips.net/video/nVNeF92POP4/видео.html
I was five when this happened, and I remember being really freaked out by this story, and scared of bumping into Lucan the murderer. It still raises the hair on the back of my neck when I think about this case.
All he had to do was shave that moustache and no one would know who he was.
He'd have had to tame that uni-brow, too. That thing was Kahloesque...
He’s alive in Jamaica
yt premium = no ads on Simon's podcasts.
This mystery and story is so gripping i love it
I've enjoyed all of the channels and most stories. Tx
Hey, Lord Lucan's "speedboat" is a smaller model of the one I live on now! (Yes, I live on a 76 yr old wooden yacht.)
Yarrrrrrr is scurrrrevy a big problem forrrr ya lass! That was my best attempt at a text version of the Cornwall accent.................. Sorry in advance X(
What a cool place to live.
Well done.
I'm a new fan of this channel. Love your tangents, my brain works the same way.
Ian Fleming lived 10 mins walk from John Aspinall in same village. Gambling law changed and was called Aspinall law. Lucan tricked Veronica and took her to a mental hospital but she refused and they could not force her as she was not “mental”. Only two nanny’s. He was watching/stalking his wife. John Aspinall personal secretary arranged for his children to visit South Africa, where Lucan would watch them from a distance. This was the secretary words and she stated this on local news and can be found on you tube. She kept it secret till John Aspinall died.
I’ve watched loads of docs, worked at Aspinall zoo and live in same area.
R.I.P Sandra
R.I.P Veronica
Him fleeing does smack of guilt, but it might not be so cut and dry. There is still a possibility that it could have been staged by the wife, in an effort to completely destroy him, by having him arrested for the murder of the nanny, and self inflicted wounds to herself. First off she had issues that required a court ordered nanny. It was established the "light was not working" yet she ran into a pub saying 'he killed the nanny." She was able to discern this in mere seconds, in a darkened room, while being attacked? There are variables not considered
I was also surprised that the possibility of the wife killing Lord Lucan (or having him killed) wasn't mentioned. Her stranged husband was stalking her/her children and trying to take her kids away. She had motive to frame him for murder or kill him for that matter. I'm sure that isn't the most likely scenario but for her to not even be mentioned as a possible suspect was surprising.
Police were very biased against him. Ignored evidence (her blood in basement and Lady Frances’s testimony) because it didn’t fit what they wanted.
I don't see how he could have known she was being attacked in a dark basement from his car. Unless he just happened to see the guy entering the house. Also unless the basement had an exterior door, there's no way he could have be entered the house after the attack was happening, I would think. And if there was another person, why didn't he confront them abort entering his house.
My only doubt is that he had the chance to kill his wife still if he wanted to, yet didn't . Unless he decided not to after killing the nanny. Which would be dumb if your trying to commit murder. You don't leave any witnesses. Dead men tell no tales, or dead women in this case. Which would have allow him to create an alibi. If he did want to kill his wife he should have actually spent more than 5 seconds on the plan. or at least a better way of getting custody.
Yeah, I'm not convinced either.
@@fukkitful there was an outside entry to the basement. While the lightbulb had been removed in the basement, it could have been done after their murder by Lucan in case his children came down. Lady Lucan and some earlier nannies stated that he would park outside the house and watch it/them in a creepy way, so he could have seen someone entering the house, then followed them to see what they were doing. She never explained how she knew Sandra was dead, nor how her blood got into the basement unless she went down which she denied. Never forget she was hit over the head and may have lost consciousness, can we believe everything she said. The only things we are sure of are certain facts. We don’t know when the attack started because mother and daughter disagree, we do though know when it ended because of witnesses in the Plumbers Arms, outside of that it is evidence that we need to rely on, though not necessarily the spin the police put on it. One fact about Lucan is that he had a phobia of blood, and yet the murder was barbaric. Also be aware about Lady Lucans general behaviour. She rejected her children throughout their lives, probably due to postpartum depression, so much so that when her 14yr daughter came to see her for the first time in several years she said not today you haven’t made an appointment and wouldn’t let her in the house. Her three children though did pay the rent on her apartment until she died.
I'm driving to the alps tomorrow. Can't wait for 9 hours of Whistler content. Well, maybe 8,5 hours with some music in between.
I love Simon sharing more of his views.
Do you Blaze?
There come moments in a chap's life
"Milestones"
First kiss
Losing one's virginity
These milestones are best seen as growing up - a journey to manhood
.
Then there are those truly depressing milestone moments that mark one's way to the grave
.
That time when a heavily pregnant 20-year-old lady stood up and offers her seat the moment you step on a bus, after a lifetime of offering up one's seat to a lady, this will come as a true slap in the face
... I went home and cried;
a slip of girl just took my title of "Gentleman" and placed it on the shelf
.
However, that pales when I heard (an intelligent) Simon kicks off this video by saying he never heard of Lord Lucan?
.
WTF !!!!
.
The past is another country
I lived there, it's a lonely place, come visit, don't panic if the door closes behind you
Holy fucking shit...Stop using methamphetamines.
Totally unrelated: one of the screens on Duolingo says "Prove you're a legend," and I always hear "legend" the way Simon says it.
I loved the way in Spitting Image (UK adult puppet show), Lord Lucan always turned up as an extra in the background !
I keep discovering new things that you do. You have so many podcasts and shows! It just makes me think of the exchange between the main character and Rob Lowe's character on Thank You For Smoking
MAIN CHARACTER: When do you find time to sleep?
ROB LOWE:...Sunday.
This series is Casual Criminalist: Lite
Love it all the same!
Now you just need to do the Charge of the Light Brigade. So you can bring in the "other" Lord Lucan. (Or as his troopers referred to him, "lord look-on").
The light behind Simon looks like the stamina wheel in Breath of the Wild
Abusive husband kills babysitter after mistaking her for estranged wife. Seems pretty cut and dry after you shake off the veneer of class and money.
Simon, ultimate respect that you get up at 4am with kids and let your wife sleep!!!! High praise
Never heard this story but it's compelling for sure.
Thanks fact Boy!
Hey Simon! Big fan here.
I’m an audio engineer. Please could you perhaps possibly maybe consider cutting some low end out of your mic. 150-300Hz could be notched down some and a HPF set around 150Hz. That or back the mic off a further 6” (ish).
I love the sound of your videos but since you’ve added the SM7B, the vocals are boomy and hard to listen to on some speaker systems.
Love your work across the various channels. :)
Dude, how have I not seen this show? Well I’m subscribed now👍
The house of lords isnt just inheritable now. There's laws dictating the percentage of inherited peers in the house of lords , it has to be below a certain number ! Cmon Simon Im a Canadian and I know that haha
Ooh. Do the Denver International Airport. A spoopy place that have great brick oven pizza. And the big BLUE HORSE
When you catch a SimonCast five minutes after release. 🙂
Don’t be so sure about the James Bond offer, Burt Reynolds was also asked to play the role too. He turned it down because he felt Bond should be played by a Brit.
Remember, they chose George Lazenby too
A generational English thing. I bet Simon’s parents know who Lord Lucan is. It was unavoidable back in the day.
I remember the year we moved to the UK, it was some time after the initial crime but there were still CONSTANT "lord lucan sighting" nrwspaper front page headlines, so anyone over 55 or so couldn't help but have heard of the whole lucky Lucan folklore.
If you were ever going to make a convincing retro tv show/movie about uk in that era, gosh, a "lord lucan" story on the front of a Sun or Daily Mail would whisk you right back to the early/mid 70s as surely as flared jeans and nude-toned pantyhose.
No offense to the woman, but Lady Lucan's account of what happened doesn't make a lick of sense. "My estranged husband killed our nanny, tried to kill me, but after I fought him off, we had a pleasant conversation where he totally believed I would cover this all up for him." Also, a small note, but a weird one: in the one letter he says he wants to avoid being tried for *attempted* murder. If he did it, did he not realize the nanny died? Saying he had their blood on him when everyone agrees he was there is not evidence of anything and there was a different, unrelated lead pipe in his car? Honestly, kind of sounds like he was being framed but chose to run instead of fighting a legal system that had already screwed him out of custody of his kids. But, that's just my two cents.
In the one letter he also says Veronica hates him and will try to pin it on him no matter what actually happened. Even though he wrote the letters after escaping the scene, seems kind of odd that he would trust her immediately after trying to kill her with a pipe and after killing someone else. Also saying she thinks he killed himself by jumping into propellers seems kinda crazy, unless there was some context that wasn't covered or I missed.
Sir Simon. That sounds great 👍
Love this new channel ! Come on Simon, french people loves you, we need to hear more shitty pronunciation in french
7:30 on conscription: I used to be strongly against it. Then I volunteered for the military and saw how it changed me to be more disciplined and able to understand people from other backgrounds and viewpoints. Now as I look at all the chaos and partisanship through assorted radical politics - I feel like conscription would be a good thing to bring back. If people had to spend a few years dealing with each other, they'd had a lot fewer crazy ideas about 'those other folks'... As for 'hampers creativity' - Israel actually helps show that it doesn't. Israel is amazingly strong in tech and creative endeavors despite universal conscription. If anything - it teaches creative people how to work with others and thus bring their ideas to fruition.
I disagree with conscription. Should always be voluntary and for many people just wouldn't want to do it and would waste a year of their lives.
Good work 👍
What we now need is a channel called "Decoding the unknown casual criminalist" with loads of tangents and sidetracks.
AM I RIGHT PETER??!!???
Draft debates are really interesting. Personally, I feel like there should be some kind of draft when you graduate from high school. I don't necessarily mean a military draft, but more of a mandated community service for X amount of years.
Only if you get the benefits of a veteran, like medical care and schooling. You can't expect people to delay careers and education for nothing. It works better to pay for a medical education, for instance, if the person then puts in x number of years with the needy, or the needy in your state if you went to a state school. Mandated community service is a common criminal sentence. Of course non-criminals would hate it. Many universities want evidence of community service for entrance to show you are well-rounded and responsible, but a lot of non-well-rounded and irresponsible teens suit themselves about how to occupy their out of school life. One should consider the cost of keeping angry or bored, and sexually active, 18 year olds on task. How many trained adults would that take? Spend a day subbing at a high school and see. And what about kids who don't graduate, who leave at 16? There are as many ways for teens to slip loose as there are kids that age, and a lot of parents willing to move their family to another country. Where I live, kids are encouraged to do things for the community, so the result is positive. Bludgeon them into it and the result would be catastrophic. I don't know why anyone would think that would be positive for the kids or the community.
@@653j521 yeah. Community service typically gives and gives back. i.e. tutoring, or inherent things that won't help rich men get richer and this, is community rather then commercialized. -- just because it's shiny doesn't make it better.
See my earlier comment to suzy Watkins in this topic( if you wish) though I expressed it with a little more,er,vitriol...
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ would recommend this podcast
Lord Lucan is hiding with Mr and Mrs Badger. In Simon's beard. 😄
"as always I'm your host Simon" since you're on literally every channel on youtube
I agree with you on the military service, but I think it should be a choice between military and civil service (where you help a local community) with the same discipline and fitness regime in both.
My brain took some liberties. But what if Lucan hired someone to attack the house only for him to sweep in and save the day but then things got murderous out of hand? Definitely fun fiction at least 😅
My grandmother felt poker was an essential life skill. (No joke, she was dead serious.)
Not for the gambling but to teach me how to cold read.
I was 3 1/2.
The ironically named Lucky Lucan...
"I'm telling you, it's just a huge coincidence"
'Yeah, course it is mate'
"Ahh what's the use, where's my coat!'
You arent the only one, simon. I thought it was a casual criminalist I was listening to until you said it
Simon: The podcasts have fewer adds.
Podcast listeners: hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
“Nobel Sir God-King, Lord of All Beasts of the Land”
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
That’s a WHOLE episode right there
Simon you should do D B Cooper as a decoding the unknown. If you do thank you so much.
As someone from Lucan it's genuinely so odd hearing it so much from people not from Lucan
