Happy New Year 2026! Sarah's New Year Resolution is to be cantankerous, so be warned Ali!


In this episode of Hooked on True Crime, we discuss various themes including domestic misdemeanours, rants about skirting boards and airline staff, and delve into the life and cases of Albert Pierrepoint, a notable executioner. We explore the cases of Eliza Wood and Catherine McCluskey, highlighting the trials of their murderers, James Corbett and PC James Robinson, respectively. The conversation is interspersed with humour, personal anecdotes, and reflections on the nature of crime and punishment.
