Not what I wanted to be putting out by RIP to my dear cat Boots who died yesterday - 13/12/25. She was an excellent cat, friend and daughter to me, I loved her so much and she was my family. I know many of you will know how much this hurts so thank you for understanding, this was not what I wanted to be doing at all, everything was very sudden and not expected but she was an old lady at 14 and she had a wonderful life. My brain is not in the game to be editing and putting things out so I'll see you all in 2026. Not a beg at all but just being very honest that if I don't put content out, I don't get paid so if you've ever considered patreon or want to use my KOFI or PayPal, that would be very useful and also help with the vet bills but as always, please don't be offended or upset if you don't want to or can't afford to, it's 100% fine and the pre and post roll ads on this ep are automatic. Just giving the option for those who can and would like to. You can also download old episodes and listen as that helps as well.

Thanks so much for understanding, being kind and knowing that grief is a tricky beast.See you in 2026.

In December 1888, when London’s East End was still haunted by the fear of Jack the Ripper, another woman was found strangled in the street: Rose Mylett. And just like that, the terror returned.

This episode takes you deep into the investigation that never reached a conclusion — a tragic death brushed aside by authorities desperate for normality at Christmas. Who killed Rose? And why did the case fade into the fog of history?

We’ll also step through the East End’s bleak holiday reality — overcrowded slums, freezing workhouses, and empty tables — and how Charles Dickens played an unlikely part in transforming Christmas into a moment of hope.

Perfect for fans of unsolved mysteries, historical true crime, and eerie Victorian storytelling.
