Seeing Red A True Crime Podcast

On 21 December 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was flying from London to New York when a bomb exploded on board as the aircraft passed over the Scottish town of Lockerbie.

All 259 passengers and crew were killed, along with 11 people on the ground. With 270 lives lost, the Lockerbie bombing remains the deadliest terrorist attack ever carried out on British soil.

But nearly four decades later, the story of Lockerbie is far from over.

As the case returns to the headlines and a new trial approaches in the United States, we revisit one of the most significant and complex stories ever covered on Seeing Red.

Who was responsible for the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103? How did investigators piece together an extraordinary international investigation from the wreckage scattered across hundreds of square miles? And why, 38 years later, do questions surrounding Lockerbie continue to provoke controversy?

As Seeing Red marks its eighth anniversary, we're looking back at some of the cases that have stayed with us long after we first covered them — beginning with a tragedy that changed hundreds of families, a small Scottish town, and the history of international terrorism forever.

This is Lockerbie.

This week on Seeing Red, we investigate the chilling case of Adam Hall – a man whose crimes would leave a devastating trail across the North East of England.

Behind closed doors, Hall was hiding a secret from the men he met. But as disturbing allegations began to emerge, investigators would uncover something far more calculated – and far more horrifying – than anyone had initially imagined.

What followed was an extraordinary investigation involving multiple victims, allegations spanning years, and the discovery that Hall had been warned about the potentially devastating consequences of his actions.

Just how many lives had he changed? How much did he know? And, most chillingly of all, why did he do it?

This is the shocking story of Adam Hall – and the investigation that exposed the truth.

On Christmas Eve 1971, 17-year-old Juliane Koepcke boarded LANSA Flight 508 with her mother, bound for the Peruvian city of Pucallpa. She could never have imagined that within hours, she would be the sole survivor of one of the most extraordinary aviation disasters in history.

When the aircraft broke apart during a violent thunderstorm, Juliane fell thousands of feet into the Amazon rainforest — still strapped into her row of seats.
Somehow, she survived.

Injured, completely alone and surrounded by one of the most unforgiving environments on Earth, Juliane now faced an extraordinary fight to stay alive and find her way back to civilisation.

This week on Seeing Red, Bethan leads us through the devastating story of LANSA Flight 508 and the almost unbelievable survival of Juliane Koepcke — a story of tragedy, resilience and one young woman's determination to live.

On a seemingly ordinary day in June 1990, 52-year-old Trevaline Evans stepped out of her antiques shop in the picturesque North Wales town of Llangollen... and was never seen again. More than three decades later, despite renewed investigations, arrests and countless theories, nobody knows what became of her.

In this episode, we trace the days leading up to Trevaline's disappearance, examine the key evidence, revisit the mysterious sightings that have fuelled speculation for years, and ask the question that has haunted investigators ever since: what really happened to Trevaline Evans?

It's a case that sparked one of our most in-depth discussions in a long time, as we explore the competing theories, challenge each other's thinking and try to make sense of a mystery that remains unsolved to this day.

As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts. What do you think happened to Trevaline Evans?

This week on Seeing Red, we're doing something a little different.

Bethan is joined by Sasha Wilson, writer and artistic director of Out Of The Forest Theatre, for a fascinating deep dive into one of history's most infamous murder cases: Lizzie Borden.

A long-time listener of Seeing Red, Sasha has spent years researching the brutal 1892 axe murders, the sensational trial that followed and the extraordinary mythology that's grown around Lizzie Borden for more than 130 years. That research became the inspiration for Bury the Hatchet – an award-winning bluegrass musical that blends true crime, courtroom drama and live folk music to ask one enduring question: did Lizzie Borden really kill her father and stepmother?

In this special episode, Bethan and Sasha explore the facts behind the legend, discuss why the Lizzie Borden case continues to fascinate more than a century later, and talk about the challenge of transforming one of history's greatest true crime mysteries into an acclaimed stage production.

Bury the Hatchet runs at Southwark Playhouse Borough from 12 August to 5 September before heading on an international tour of Canada. For tickets and more information, visit Out Of The Forest Theatre – Bury the Hatchet.
