Not only was the story interesting, if you’re from that era the music tracks played were also excellent listening. I’m always surprised that friends and family are puzzled when these types of people are taken out. They never accept the suffering they inflicted on others while continuing to enjoy...Read full review »

Very interesting podcast on the life of John Palmer. More in depth information than freely available. Highly recommend if you’re into true crime 👍🏻
Jimbo675 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/30/23
This podcast really looked into the insight of the person who was John Palmer, gave me a lot of information that I didn’t already know and also didn't over glorify the situation. Good podcast worthlessRead full review »

Captivatingly presented and exquisitely researched. The best British crime podcast I’ve listened to.
DickTracey344 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/19/23
Sounds big budget because it is. When the BBC spend our money you can tell.
Russell gawat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/23

Libby is absolutely fantastic - so well researched, she draws you right into the centre of the story and you then have to binge the whole series! Superb soundtracks too - the series are so bursting with life! Well done Libby - MORE PLEASE

please do more!

This is where the BBC glamourise dreadful violent crimes and times. Painting a picture of the relevant crime filled socio-economic climate as ‘progressive’. Here’s a simple translation of key phrases Vibrant multicultural area = violent ghetto Just a nice local lad = violent hate filled...Read full review »

Anyone who grew up in Britain from the 1980s needs to listen in. Incredible reportage.

Gangster is a superb series. It is well written and I love the style of the presenter who presents the material in an engaging manner with some nice jokes from time to time. I met Paul and he was exactly as described. Well done
Mancaussie via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/17/23
Gangster is one of the very few podcasts I binge. All the seasons so far have been riveting with high quality journalism with great archive snippets and period soundtracks. It’s just very good!
Scarborough Soap via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/13/23
This is a high dollar production. Everything about it screams professional, the music, the voices, the interviews, everything. Quite remarkable. And by no means does it glamorize criminals as one misguided reviewer commented.
magaoingo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/13/23
Started off with Goldfinger… ended up binging the lot! Very enjoyable & good sound tracks in the background too.
RANDY SAX via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/10/23
It’s produced in a manner that glamorises gangsters
bunjinan via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/08/23
This could be great if only not for the LOUD SOUND EFFECTS ALL THE TIME! “He lived on a barge”... LOUD BARGE SOUNDS, it was the 80s ... LOUD 80s music! WE GET IT YOU HAVE SOUND EFFECTS! 😂
sirbob12345 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/15/22
This is well researched and interesting. However, I don’t like the glamorisation of these people who are a cancer on society. The presenter seems to be slightly in thrall to people who devastate the lives of millions and cost billions of pounds worth of damage to the U.K. economy.
Snoop1965 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/04/22
If you into true life crime stories then this ticks all the boxes.. I want more.
Petu27 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/07/22
It is well enough made and certainly entertaining but herein lies the rub. There is a tone of breathless wonder in it which comes too close to the admiration of really dangerous, craven criminals for me. I admit I stopped after listening after five episodes, so maybe there are interviews with...Read full review »

Watch out for the reference’s to the political back drop! As the UK is heading there again!
Mre Trellis via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/09/22
Absolutely LOVE your gangster podcasts- more please
Glambart via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/13/22
Quite good but it’s annoying that they play the same trailer at the beginning and end of every episode. Obviously trying to pad out the length of each episode
Test12345zx via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/18/22
Absolutely brilliant podcast. Great insight into the criminal world
wilsonrichard via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/11/22
Brilliant podcast with an amazing soundtrack
Waylynn75 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/09/22
An amazing and outrageous story that deserves a Narcos UK series without doubt!
stoptherot via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/08/22
Both series are great even if you have heard about crimes elsewhere. They are really well put together and the presenter does a great job too. Hoping for a third series to come along soon.
Trueblue 2010 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/06/22
The story is intriguing and keeps the listener engaged. Adding more from the outside perspective of people who lived through it might add something more. I agree the accents are a bit tough at times being from the US but you can still follow along quite easily. I am quite fond of non-fiction...Read full review »

Brilliant insight and interesting.
Gemma Bayley via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/25/22
I’m knocking a point off for the presenters annoying bbc journalist pronunciation of the word cocaine. It ain’t ‘cuckaine’ Livvy, behave yourself girl!
NikkWitt via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/25/22
Absolutely brilliant podcast Listened to them all in two days .. more please
italianwhite via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/23/22
Both series of Gangster are excellent, meticulously researched and very engaging to listen to. I would highly recommend both series.

Growing up in Manchester, you always heard references about Mr Big and his gang. Great research and brilliantly put together Livvy.

Gripping story of real life underworld we’re unaware of.
