Whenever i go out i can hear nick ross in my head commentating my journey "at 5:45 she took the bus home, she was seen by 2 ladies waiting for the next bus. but why did she get off 2 stops before her usual one" 😂
Love the way David Hatcher pronounces "moustache". I go through each episode waiting for him to appear and describe a new suspect, who had a "moostoch"
Definitely not now - those kinds of armed robberies are pretty much non existent these days. Cash is used so much less and security measures have improved so much that the stolen money would be unusable.
I feel a bit sorry for Supt David Hatcher. You can tell his throat must have been dry from the amount reporting he had to do all alone since Helen Phelps left the studio. You can sometimes hear him in some episodes pausing to catch his breath 😂 I believe Jacqui Hames steps in to lend a hand from somewhere in 1990. Love her voice, very soothing like Phelps’.
The Gordon Johnston case in Dundee was solved quite quickly. In December 1989 two men, Ryan Monks and Paul Mill, both got life sentences for the murder. They were turned in by Monks' uncle. When police raided their homes they found sawn off shot guns and detailed plans to kidnap the mother of a local businessman and demand a ransom.
Why didn’t he wait with her till the bus came. I know it happened years ago and nothing changes what happened but still can’t help thinking what if? RIP.x
God i love youtube haha. Im on a mad crimewatch binge. dont usually watch it but seeing all the old murders and then googling them to see if they caughjt the killers.
In case someone should wonder where the June episode has gone: this is the June episode (as we can hear it in progress reports and especially see in the CeeFax extract where Thu 8 Jun is written) but has been postponed spontaneously to July 6th as we can see it in BBC Genome schedule for BBC One, July 6th.
Ace! Thanks Redcard. This episode is interesting, because according to Genome this looks like it was scheduled for June. At first i thought it might be an misprint in the original Radio Times but at a guess I would say it is correct and was pushed back to July. And I'd put my money on it being because of industrial action at the time. I vaguely remember live shows used to be cancelled when the BBC had walk outs in the 1980s. Was there no show in June 1989, Redcard?
Good thinking. I was really confused as to why the synopsis on Genome is the same for June and July, and by the fact that at the end of May's episode they said the next one would be in June. You've actually saved me a sleepless night 😂
Did CW not used to break for the summer and so not be broadcast in July or August? Generally a series would run from September to June, be off air for two months and then start a new series in September...
rwt1986 - look under Daphne Torrock Murder. It’s believed she was murdered by her Moroccan boyfriend Omar Errajraji. He was here in London under an assumed name and fled to Casablanca shortly after the murder. Police were satisfied he was the killer and sought a conviction in Morocco for which the penalty is death. The investigation was hampered by translation difficulties leading to the Moroccan police releasing him to his parents after UK police bungled the paperwork !!!! This was in 1993 and there’s no more information on it as to whether he was eventually tried and convicted.....
She was stabbed multiple times and suffocated. A truly horrific murder. It seems she was murdered in her home by her toyboy lover who she met in London. As the other poster commented the last thing online is the 1993 prosecution attempt by the British and Moroccan authorities, I believe he was convicted in 1994/1995 and received a thirty year sentence.
“Fat Redditch Robber” - brutal. And he would not be considered fat these days. It’s my firm belief that all criminals, especially serial killers, should be given brutally pejorative nicknames. Less “The Nightstalker” and more “The tiny penis killer”, that sort of thing.
That armed raid in Liverpool at the end is a good indication of how times were changing for armed robbers. There had been an explosion in armed robbery earlier in the 1980s and it was causing a lot of concern because the gangs were using the stolen money to fund other crime. The government tightened up sentencing for armed robbery, and technology was improving (such as the red smoke). A lot of armed robbery gangs decided it had become too much of a risk for not much of a return and many moved on into drug related crime.
I think this IS the episode of June. It was scheduled for June 8th (as we can see in the Ceefax extract) but seemed to be postponed (to July 6th?) since Sue is telling that 15th of June was three weeks ago (i.e. before the actual airing date). EDIT: a check at BBC Genome, Issue from June 29th and programme day July 6th reveals that the June's Crimewatch has indeed being postponed.
@@topbanana4128 You're welcome! Seems that June '89 has been somewhat a "cursed" month for Crimewatchers; the German base Aktenzeichen XY had also issues with the June programme (aired just one day after the scheduled date, i.e. June 9th). The "never aired start" of that programme became legendary: just before, a live broadcast of a tennis match went overtime, way into the start of the programme which was at 8:15 PM. One has to know that, unlike today, the programme was aired in all three German-speaking countries simultaneously as a Eurovision programme between Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The German station ZDF did not want to switch off the tennis broadcast so that Austria and Switzerland started Aktenzeichen on time while Germany started 20 minutes too late. The first reconstruction was reshown to the Germans but it is told that Germany actually never saw the beginning of that programme ...
@@croqueGrec09 Whowww..! You really know your Crimewatch history..! I didn't realise any of the episodes were shown in Germany or Austria. Crimewatch was a great show. I watched my 1st episode, as a child, one night in a pub, in a small town in Co. Donegal. And I was hooked right away..! The reconstructions were scary but addictive, particularly the 80's/90's reconstructions. Do you remember the guy standing still against a tree in the park in the early morning, during the reconstruction about the guy who had been found murdered in the same park with a karate chop to the neck? A passer-bys dog ran up to the man barking at him but the man never flinched, just stared straight ahead..? That reconstruction gave me night mares 🤣🤣
@@topbanana4128 Well, it was barely known in Germany either that "Aktenzeichen XY" (the oldest one of the Crimewatch programmes, still running since 1967, next programme is on June 9th (again!)) had sister programmes in other countries. On the other hand, if you watch the October's progress report, you may note that a German student was called as witness for the Dixon murder, featured in September '89's Crimewatch. This very call was indeed shown in December '89 to the German viewership as well (I noted it under the September '89 upload). I was born, grew up and live in Cologne and got used to Aktenzeichen since my very early childhood. Later on, when uploads started a decade ago, I was myself uploader of Aktenzeichen XY episodes and kept a wiki for the programme where I linked the uploaded episodes. Eight years ago, there was a Dutch uploader who had some episodes of Crimewatch as well. It was then when I had a full list of Crimewatch episodes, too and tried the same international linking between the programmes. And indeed - the reconstructions (both German and English!) were objective and fixed on facts on the one hand but - just as you say - scary and addictive, too! Particularly from the '60s up to the '90s. As I browse through the comments, I remark that both the English and the German viewers miss and love the scariness of the old reconstructions, just as I do ...
When in these reconstructions they say people used to phrases ‘push off’ or ‘naff orf’ do you think they really said it ? Or used stronger more degrading language ?!
5:43 ask for a tenner interest if she lent you 50 pence that one. 6:04 Linda Gillotsy was a right goer back in the day 6:24 so were all the men coming out your house Linda.
London stopped being 01 in May 1990 and became 071 in inner london and 081 in Greater London. That changed to 0181 and 0171 in 1996 I think and finally became 0207 and 0208 in 2000. Due to more numbers being needed.
Why do these silly people go into these places to rob them, NOT wearing a mask??? Or at least, some sorta disguise??? That's just ASKING to be caught! I'll never understand that, Lol.....I mean, I don't get why they do it at all, but if you're gonna do it, AT LEAST where a disguise!! Lol
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"

Why didn’t that girl’s boyfriend wait for the bus with her?? That’s what I would have done. In fact I would have got her a taxi home.
Probably many reasons you never know try not to think about it too much i mean it was in 1989
Was meeting his new bird was bored of her
Wouldn't let it bother you those people are probably gone or old now
