About this listen
Parker’s father survived with slight injuries. But his mother lingered for weeks with a festering head wound.
The year was 1864. Elizabeth Parker fell into a coma and died in April. Four months later, her son also met his maker — at the end of a rope in front of 10,000 citizens.
Thomas Parker was the last person to be hanged in public at Nottingham. This is his story.
With contributions from Emmaline Severn, a distant relative of Elizabeth Parker, and Paul Mann QC.
The traditional folk songs in this episode are performed by Catherine Earnshaw and Keith Clouston.
“The Quiet Joys of Brotherhood” is a traditional tune with lyrics by Richard and Mimi Fariña.
“Blue Bleezin’ Blind Drunk” also traditional with the last verse written by Linda Thompson.
“False, False” is a traditional Scottish song collected in 1962 by Ewan McColl and Peggy Seeger.
