About this listen
In this episode of Twisted Britain, Bob and Ali take us back to the early 19th century, to the small English village of Strewd, where a heinous crime took place amidst the social upheaval of the Industrial Revolution. The hosts dive deep into the harrowing case of Richard Taylor, a 13-year-old boy, brutally murdered by 14-year-old John Bell. With themes of jealousy, poverty, and social divide, the episode explores how economic struggles and resentment fueled this shocking crime. Listen in as we unravel the details of Richard’s tragic death, the investigation, and the grim fate that awaited young John Bell—the youngest person hanged in the UK during the 19th century.
