    Peter Moore- The Man In Black

    Peter Moore’s passion for reviving the glory days of cinema was one which he took very seriously. When he reopened cinemas that had been dark for years, the story seemed almost wholesome in its narrative; an eccentric old movie enthusiast standing against the march of the out-of-town multiplex. If you knew Peter Moore only through his businesses, there was little reason to imagine that the private world behind that public image was radically different from the one he showed customers, neighbours, and fellow movie lovers. However, across the same part of North Wales, other men had encountered a far darker version of Peter Moore. A series of apparently unconnected events would eventually draw police attention across Anglesey, Denbighshire, and the northern Welsh coast, and force investigators to look far more closely at the man whose name had become familiar throughout the region. What they discovered would transform an eccentric businessman into one of the most notorious criminals in modern Welsh history, and expose a pattern of predatory behaviour that had been developing for years before anybody fully understood its true scale. This week, we're looking at the life and crimes of Peter Moore, the man the media would later call the 'Man in Black'.

    The Shepherd's Bush Murders: Three Policemen Executed in Broad Daylight

    On 12 August 1966, three Metropolitan Police officers were carrying out their duties on a quiet street near Wormwood Scrubs prison in west London. Within minutes, all three would be dead. The cold-blooded killings of Detective Sergeant Christopher Head, Detective Constable David Wombwell and Police Constable Geoffrey Fox sent shockwaves across Britain, sparking one of the largest manhunts in the history of British policing. But what could have driven someone to murder three police officers in broad daylight? Who was responsible? And how would the events of that summer's afternoon leave a legacy that would endure for decades? Sixty years on, this week on Seeing Red, we revisit the shocking Shepherd's Bush murders, a case that changed British policing forever.

    SECOND LOOK: A Fire at the Home of the Broadhead Family

    Daniel Jones was sentenced to 20 years in prison in November 2017 for starting a deadly house fire in Stanley, Wakefield, that killed 42 year old father of 2 Andrew Broadhead, and his eight-year-old daughter, Kiera. Jones was found guilty of two counts of manslaughter and one count of burglary, and received a 20-year prison sentence. Bethan has not been able to shake this case, it is one she still thinks of whenever she researches an episode with a fire. Originally released in June 2019 and newly remastered, with a new introduction and update.

    The Murder of Melanie Road: The Killer Who Hid in Plain Sight for 32 Years

    In the summer of 1984, seventeen-year-old Melanie Road had almost everything ahead of her. Bright, popular and ambitious, she was approaching the end of her A-levels and looking forward to university and the freedom of adult life. But in the early hours of 9 June, after spending the night out with friends in Bath, Melanie began the short walk home. She never made it. Her murder would become one of Britain's most haunting unsolved crimes. Police had evidence. They had witnesses. They had something left behind by Melanie's killer that would one day prove crucial. But as months became years and years became decades, the person responsible remained free. For more than thirty years, Melanie's family waited for an answer. And then, in 2015, something happened that would finally begin to unravel a mystery that had endured for a generation. This week on Seeing Red, we follow the murder of Melanie Road, the extraordinary investigation that followed, and the breakthrough that finally brought detectives face-to-face with the man they had been searching for since 1984.

    The Honeymoon Murder: Michaela McAreavey

    In January 2011, 27-year-old Michaela McAreavey travelled to the tropical island of Mauritius with her new husband, John, for what should have been the happiest holiday of their lives. Married just eleven days earlier, the young couple were looking forward to beginning their new life together. But behind the luxurious surroundings of their five-star resort, an unimaginable horror was about to unfold. When Michaela failed to return from a brief visit to their hotel room, John went looking for her. What he discovered would shatter his world and spark an international murder investigation. How could a young bride be brutally murdered in what should have been the safety of her honeymoon suite? And why, more than fifteen years later, has nobody been brought to justice? This week on Seeing Red, we uncover the shocking murder of Michaela McAreavey, a case of heartbreak, unanswered questions and a family's enduring fight for justice.

    SECOND LOOK: The Mandalay Bay Massacre — Nine Years On

    On 1 October 2017, a gunman opened fire on thousands of people attending the Route 91 Harvest music festival on the Las Vegas Strip, committing the deadliest mass shooting by a lone gunman in modern US history. Nine years on, we’re returning to one of the most devastating cases we’ve ever covered for the latest instalment of Seeing Red: Second Look. Originally released in 2022, Mark recorded this episode just days after returning from Las Vegas, where a visit to the Mandalay Bay hotel inspired him to explore the events of that night. In a newly recorded introduction, he reflects on visiting the resort and the strange normality of a place where there was little visible acknowledgement of the horror that had unfolded there just a few years earlier. The episode also gives a voice to some of those who survived the attack, including stories of extraordinary courage, resilience and, in one particularly tragic case, an almost unimaginable twist of fate. Whether you heard this episode when it was first released or are discovering the case with us for the first time, this is Seeing Red: Second Look — The Mandalay Bay Massacre. This episode was originally released in January 2022 and is presented largely in its original form, with a newly recorded introduction.
