Unbelievable

This is truly shocking, brilliantly told . Essex police have a lot to answer. Journalism at its very best highly recommended.

Superb

I admire the dogged work that journalists like this do so much. This is an absolutely gripping and shocking story. I look forward to hearing further episodes and hope that more information is uncovered.

Outstanding work

I only recently discovered this podcast and I can’t recommend ‘Unfinished’ highly enough
It manages to pull the right threads together and leaves you with more questions than answers. A better investigation than anything on MSM that will leave you chilled
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
