6. The House of Milk and Murder | The Baby Farmer and The Butcher of Muswell Hill
In this weeks episode, we descend into the grim and grisly world of two of England's most horrifying serial killers.We begin in the fog-choked alleys of Victorian Britain, where Amelia Dyer - known as the "Baby Farmer" - preyed on society's most vulnerable. Beneath a veil of maternal care, she built a legacy of unthinkable cruelty, leaving tiny corpses floating in the Thames.Then we jump to the late 1970's, into the drab North London flat of Dennis Nilsen - the unassuming civil servant who lured young men to their deaths before storing their remains beneath the floor boards. These two killers lived decades apart, but both masked monstrous intent behind ordinary facades. We unravel their chilling stories, explore their psychology, and reflect on how their crimes changed Britain forever. Lock your doors. Keep the lights on. And listen closely - some cries never fade.
