I can’t even imagine that at a time when you excited to start your lives together that it could be be cut short in such a shocking way. The injustice...”Read full review »

“Interesting & heartbreaking story. Bit rambling and not concise enough. Narrators talk over each other & sound not great.
In the episode where they get back to Ireland after the injustice of the court case and start talking of the visit of Martin mcguinness in such reverent terms, I...”Read full review »

“Such an awful outcome for a newly married couple.
It’s so clear and obvious justice was not done and it needs to be revisited to obtain justice .
Very professional podcast and with plenty of detail and easy to follow the case with the information shared.”

“It’s a pity there was no direction on recording this podcast, it was hard to concentrate and the audio sound echoey. Talking over each other, sounded like it was secretly filmed in a pub corner. Nevertheless a sad story and it must have been a difficult time”

“We visited Mauritius last July for the 2nd time. Our first trip was awful but we’d heard such good things we gave it a 2nd chance.
Halfway through I realised we were staying at the same hotel. It’s had a refit. Been relaunched and the room has been re numbered.
I knew about the case and this...”Read full review »
