Reviews - Page 16 | British Murders with Stuart Blues

Love the accent of the host and the concise storytelling of the episodes

When lockdown began I revisited all my favorite "cozy" murder writers from the Golden Age of Detective Fiction (Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, Josephine Tey) and although most of the stories told in your podcast are anything but "cosy" they illustrate the continuum of how murder can be very personal. Living in the U.S. I'm much more familiar with American accents, but I love hearing your northern accent and the slang you use occasionally. Keep bringing stories to us!

5 big fat stars

You’re podcast has been a saviour for me over the past few months, I like to think of you as a slightly morbid knight in shining armour :) jokes aside, you make my work days go so much quicker and I’ve not long recovered from major surgery, and your soothing voice and intriguing stories really helped me pull through when times were tough. Keep up the good work, you’re very talented!

Morbid listening but informative

Love this podcast, I listen all the time now, its all obv very morbid but very interesting and informative, some I have never heard of and I live in Scotland. Its easy to listen because you have a lovely voice so makes up for the horrid contents spoken about.

Fantastic!

This is such a great podcast! I discovered it a couple of weeks ago (via Scottish Murders) and have now binged my way current. I work from home and Stuart has been the perfect audio companion for my work day. I appreciate the shorter episode length and enjoy the bonus interviews and crossovers with other podcasters. Looking forward to new content!

Having listened to many different true crime podcasts, British Murders is one of the best. From cases and facts to presentation. Stuart does a great job.

An absolute gem of a show!

This is a gem of a true crime podcast! I’ve been listening for a good while now and really look forward to new episodes having exhausted all of the older ones. Each episode is very well written, Stuart hits the right balance of factual and respectful narrative with a smattering of dark humour that’s needed to not make the story too sombre listening, and all delivered in a lovely lilting northern accent. I love the format of shorter and longer episodes and the interviews are super interesting too. Thanks for making those boring work commutes for more enjoyable!

Thoroughly enjoying!

Found this podcast by chance, now it's my top listened to podcast. Love the icebreakers at the beginning and Stuart's calm and friendly way of explaining his well researched findings. The length of the episodes are just right, short enough for you not to lose interest, long enough to include all the facts. Nice touch at the end of every episode to acknowledge and thank listeners reviews and new patreon members etc. I'm of to buy you a coffee (or2) for covering my suggestion. Cheerio!

Obsessed!

I started listening last week and am binge listening. Stuart has a way of telling the stories and keeping listeners engaged. His accents are hilarious and he doesn’t take himself too serious

What a great find!

I stumbled upon your podcast after seeing you on tiktok and i'm so glad i did. Most podcasts of true crime seem geared towards the US so its so refreshing that Britain is featured with this fascinating podcast. I love the mix of historical and more recent cases as well as the straightforward approach in your delivery of facts and stats!

Most Interesting Podcast Ever

I love this podcast. I listen to it every day in my car if I can. I’ve got a lot of episodes to catch up on, which is fantastic for me as I can’t get enough of them. So many murders have happened that I had no idea about or knew very little of, but now I feel like I can actually recite what happened when talking to my friends and family about it, if they want to of course. Thank you Stuart for making my day to day journeys more bearable. Keep up the fantastic work.

Love it!

Found this podcast when looking for something about British murders... I had been indulging in American ones previously... I have been binging this for a while now, on my drives to and from work via Spotify... and I am loving it! So many I never knew about, and some I remember hearing about! And I got to say, your voice is far easier to listen to than alot of podcasts out there! I'd love to hear more about some from the 90's and 00's! Especially ones which had been in the papers! Keep up the good work!!!

Love it!

Stumbled across this podcast a a few days ago, made my 5 hour drive from London to Carlisle and then the return, go really quickly. Absolutely adore the Daddy Facts jingle and all your waffling before the start of the main story

Exceptional True Crime Podcast

Since its creation, my wife and I have followed this podcast avidly. The episodes are well-researched, concise and engaging. Bluesy’s dulcet northern twang has a hypnotising effect and it is the perfect podcast to unwind to (minus the night terrors.)

Love listening to podcasts. As i write this review i am working my way through all episodes. Love the dad facts and your narration of each case. Well done and keep up the good work.

Excellent

As a criminology tutor I recommend this to students to look at the background of specific crimes. I like the quick, no nonsense approach as it means I can binge a couple of episodes in a dog walk

Stuart blues is the enthusiastic friend

His delivery is so laid back and respectful whilst he still manages to deliver the most disturbing cases

Absolutely spot on in every way

As so many before me have said….discovered your podcast by accident. Was hooked immediately by Daddy Facts but your programs have had me in your grip sense. Your style, your research, your presentation are all, just, well, superb. Stay with it, even if you do have a self admitted short attention span.

I've listened to a lot of true crime podcasts and this is my favorite. The host is fantastic. Great storytelling, wonderful humor and a voice that you can't get enough of. I'm addicted. "Cheerio"

Great find on Spotify

Can’t believe I missed this on Spotify until now. Love the presentation; I find the crime podcasts which are jokey and veer off course a real turn-off. British Murders is respectful and the story is well told. The episodes where Stuart interviews writers and experts involved in criminal justice, really interesting. Currently my number one podcast!

Love it!

I thought I was the only person with this macabre interest! Really enjoy the diversity of Stuart’s stories; each one different and interesting! I would like to suggest the murder of Lee Duffy- a small town bad boy, who’s life choices ended in his untimely death. Thanks Stuart! Keep it up! One of the best out there!
