  • September, 1983.
    Aberdeen Taxi Driver, George Murdoch was almost halfway through his long taxi shift, when he picked up a passenger, close to the city centre.
    On route to his passenger’s destination, for some unknown reason, George turned his taxi into a dimly lit side street, when his passenger wrapped a cheese wire around his neck.  George somehow managed to escape from the taxi, but his assailant quickly caught him, and then strangled him, until his body became motionless.
    Then, the killer just disappeared into the night, leaving George to die, alone at the side of the street.
    Four decades later, this murder remains unsolved, but the police continue to investigate this cold case, with several promising leads.
    Across five episodes, in this True Crime podcast, we speak to Georges family and friends and criminal psychology experts.  We also speak to the Senior Investigating Officer, and the Forensic Scientists at the very centre of this investigation, as we ask, “Who is the Cheese Wire Killer?”

    Three doors down: a murder, a mother and a thirty year investigation


    In May 2023 David Boyd was found guilty of the brutal murder in 1992 of seven year-old Nikki Allan. Sharon Henderson, Nikkiโ€™s mother, called for a public inquiry into why it had taken the police so long to find and convict her daughterโ€™s murderer. 


    When Nikki was murdered, Sharon was a single mother of four living in Wear Garth, a rundown housing estate in Sunderland. David Boyd lived a few floors above Sharon in the same block. He was known to the police. He was the kind of offender who should have been caught. 


    Three doors down tells the astonishing story of Sharon Hendersonโ€™s thirty year campaign to get justice for her daughterโ€™s killing. It shines a light on police behaviour and their treatment of working class women. Itโ€™s a personal tale of trauma and resilience in the face of systemic police failure, that couldnโ€™t be more timely.

  • The death of brilliant scientist Dr Brenda Page remained a mystery for more than 40 years - becoming one of Britain's longest-running unsolved murders.


    The young and talented 32-year-old was bludgeoned to death in her flat in Aberdeen - the Scottish city famous for its granite buildings and oil industry.

    On July 13, 1978, Brenda - originally from Ipswich, England - left her laboratory at the University of Aberdeen where she headed up the genetics department, and joined two rich businessmen for dinner at a plush hotel in the city.


    The following day, worried colleagues went to check on her after she failed to turn up for work - and made the grim discovery of her body. Brenda had been beaten to death in a violent and frenzied attack with a blunt instrument. When it was revealed that she'd been living a double life, rumours spread about the identity of her killer.


    In this seven-part series, award-winning journalist Ruth Warrander explores three theories as to who could have killed Brenda, before she reveals the shocking truth.
