- On August 17th, 1849, London police officers made a grisly discovery at the home of George and Maria (born Marie de Roux) Manning. Her former beau, Patrick O'Connor, had been buried under the floor. A nationwide hunt for the couple would follow, and after that a trial and executions. The murder case would grip London so fervently that Madame Tussaud would later add wax versions of the couple to her infamous Chamber of Horrors.
My guest today is Gavin Whitehead, creator, writer and narrator of The Art of Crime podcast, which is currently in its third season.

that was the best guest you’ve ever had on! he was sensational!
This was both an intriguing story and a wonderful history lesson, about several different facets of Victorian culture. I appreciate when crime-related podcasts actually teach you about something more than just the crime itself.
This was a terrific interview. Loved it.
Great interview! Both of you did such a great job of structuring a complex story in a fun and easily graspable way. I've bookmarked Most Notorious and can't wait to hear more.
This was an excellent presentation on the famous murder. Over the years, I'd come upon the title "The Bermondsey Horror" and imagine some 1950s cheap movie scenario of a giant lizard or vampire terrorizing a neighborhood. Then I'd remember, "Oh yeah, it's the couple that killed the wife's old boyfriend and buried him under the kitchen floor". It is a very interesting story. I tend to think that Maria did visit Patrick's apartment as part of a plot 1) to be able to claim that he never came to their house that evening, and 2) if the body was discovered, to give her an alibi. Not good enough.
The interest in crime hasn't changed much since the mid 19 th century.
This is a wonderful true crime podcast on U-Tube,that too few know..Well I’m trying to spread its word to all I know in the U.K..
Great upload on a case I never knew and now glad I have..Thank you and all the best.!🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
I was done at a past life, but i usually like most of your podcasts. G-d bless.
I thought the same thing, but when I listened again, I think he was just saying this was something he did long ago
Agreed. That was clearly what he meant. And it turned out to be an incredible interview. @@MAllen-ng8pl
@@MAllen-ng8plno listen again he is saying in A past life ie not this life .
Surely, you have heard someone say "in a past life" as a figure of speech for something that you used to do, but a long time ago? It's a really common saying. Also, I looked it up. He did a doctorate in theater history at Yale before he went into podcasting, so he's obviously referring to that. @@jamescorlett5272
If you look up the guest's name, you'll see he has a doctorate in Theater History and has written scholarly articles on the subject. Then, he changed careers to go into podcasting. So, it seems to me that he did NOT mean "a past life" literally. @@jamescorlett5272
In a past life I was a janitor.
