<p>When Natalie Doig started Weird in the Wade - a podcast about strange goings-on in her home town of Biggleswade - she had no idea it would become a smash-hit, spawning a range of merchandise, live shows and ghost tours.</p> <p>But such is the fascination people have with stories about true crime and the paranormal.</p> <p>One tale in particular has captivated this small town in Buckinghamshire for nearly two centuries. </p> <p>In 1843, Sarah Dazley was executed for the murder of her second husband, William.

<p>In 1994, Nick was new to Chesham. He befriended the landlord of the Black Cat pub, and would occasionally help out behind the bar.</p> <p>One day, when Nick was the only person on shift, a man walked into the pub and told the regulars they would see him on the TV news that night. He returned later that evening, but this time he was armed with two hand grenades and a machete.</p> <p>Nick kept the man talking for several hours as he told of his marriage beakdown and fiddled with the release pins on the grenades. Meanwhile, terrified punters were escaping through the window in the Gents, and police marksmen were gathering in the carpark...</p> <p>This is a tale of Hollywood drama in the heart of the Buckinghamshire countryside. </p> <p>Now, Nick tells his story, for the very first time.</p> <div dir="auto"> <div>If you have any story ideas for future episodes of Caught Up in Crime - you can email them to <a href= "mailto:caughtupincrime@gmail.com">caughtupincrime@gmail.com</a> or contact me at <a href= "mailto:tom@shinebrighterconsulting.co.uk">tom@shinebrighterconsulting.co.uk</a> </div> </div> <p dir="ltr">Connect with me on <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-clarke-a6732353/">LinkedIn</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Or <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/1546172493440360">Facebook</a></p> <p>Or <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/caughtupincrime/">Instagram</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Artwork by <a href= "https://spencerwilson.co.uk/">Spencer Wilson</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Music by <a href= "https://www.premiumbeat.com/home">Premium Beat</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Theme: Noir Guitar by Jonathan Boyle</p> <p dir="ltr">Tracks featured in this episode:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr">Dark Encounters by Lost Harmonies</li> <li dir="ltr">Hard Decisions by Lost Harmonies</li> <li dir="ltr">Car Chase by Wolves</li> <li dir="ltr">Stay There by Nicklaus Vogel</li> </ul> <p dir="ltr">Outro: Like Thunder by Colin Fraser</p>

<p>Peter Sutcliffe terrorised West Yorkshire in the late 1970s, killing 13 women and attacking many more.<br /> <br /> He was caught nearly fifty years ago - and he's been dead for five - but his face is still instantly recognisable. His name synonymous with evil and brutality.</p> <p>Writers Sally-Anne Martyn and Daniel Sellers were both just children at the time of Sutcliffe's crimes, but grew up in the heartlands of Yorkshire and watched as their families and communities were devastated by the man the media dubbed The Ripper.<br /> <br /> The Sutcliffe case has had a lasting impact on the criminal justice system and influenced the way we look at prejudices in society, particularly the way victims are portrayed.<br /> <br /> But it has also had a profound effect on the way Daniel and Sally Anne write.<br /> <br /> In Daniel's crime novels and Sally Anne's psychological thrillers, the ghost of Sutcliffe is ever-present. The Shadow in The North.</p> <div dir="auto">Sally-Anne Martyn is the author of psychological dark thrillers 'The Clinic' 'The Home' and 'The Beauty Queen.' Her fourth dark thriller / horror will be published by Boldwood Books in October 2026. </div> <div dir="auto"> <div> </div> <div><a href= "https://linktr.ee/sallyannemartyn?utm_source=linktree_profile_share%3Csid=799c6e08-c9be-4d38-b4c5-e5a6313be53f"> Click here for links to buy Sally-Anne's books</a>.</div> <div> </div> <div>Daniel Sellers is the best selling author of the Lola Harris Mysteries and the Yorkshire Killings (which includes The Lollipop Man mentioned in the episode)</div> <div> </div> <div><a href="https://www.danielsellers.co.uk/where-to-buy">Click here for more information on where to buy Daniel's books.</a></div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div>If you have any story ideas for future episodes of Caught Up in Crime - you can email them to <a href= "mailto:caughtupincrime@gmail.com">caughtupincrime@gmail.com</a> or contact me at <a href= "mailto:tom@shinebrighterconsulting.co.uk">tom@shinebrighterconsulting.co.uk</a> </div> </div> <p dir="ltr">Connect with me on <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-clarke-a6732353/">LinkedIn</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Or <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/1546172493440360">Facebook</a></p> <p>Or <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/caughtupincrime/">Instagram</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Artwork by <a href= "https://spencerwilson.co.uk/">Spencer Wilson</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Music by <a href= "https://www.premiumbeat.com/home">Premium Beat</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Theme: Noir Guitar by Jonathan Boyle</p> <p dir="ltr">Tracks featured in this episode:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr">True Crime by Tea Time</li> <li dir="ltr">Night Falls by Lost Harmonies</li> <li dir="ltr">Blueprints by Tom Olivier</li> <li dir="ltr">Whispers in the Attic by Cosmo Lawson</li> </ul> <p>Outro: Wild Mountain Thyme by Harpo Marks</p>
