This was absolutely excellent. The inclusion of the artwork was a wonderful touch. The narrator was just splendid, really captured the essence of story-telling. I really hope you guys do more of historic murders/crimes.
A TV program that's why
Wasn't he just.
Delicious.
@balthiersgirl2658 I used to enjoy this on TV, I wished they did more of them
Sometimes I find it hard to believe that my Nan lived in Shoreditch at the time Jack the Ripper was haunting the streets. She was only 7 but she had 6 older sisters it must have been a terrifying for her family.
WOW!
Wow! Did she ever say anything or tell any stories about her experience? I'm sure it all must've been absolutely terrifying. 🤭🤔
@@titsandwich1842 We know that now but at the time" murder was afoot and the fear of death was everywhere" Having slashed up bodies on your local streets with no idea what was happening must have been terrifying for Jan's Nan and all around. I would have been terrified as a kid.
When did your nan pass?
That's mental!! Very cool in an extremely macabre way lol
Me: Wow it's messed up how these people were obsessed with crime and witnessing an execution!
Also me: watching Real Crime cases
Its the same 😂
One of the most relatable comments I've ever seen.
Yep, yep, yep. Right there with you!
😂
😂😂😂 you’ve made me think! Maybe I would’ve been one of those old ladies that took along their knitting to watch an execution? No I don’t really think so!
A great tale and I love this narrator. He really knows how to use his voice. Good job.
I know he's a professional actor, but what's his name?
@@mikewilliams4438 That would be Sir Michael Caine.
@@mikewilliams4438 The narrator is Nicholas Day.
@@petefromyesterday Correct: Nicholas Day.
Nicholas Day (his name is listed at the beginning credits) is an accomplished British actor who has appeared in 74 film and tv productions, including The Crown, Midsummer Murders, Rosemary & Thyme, Inspector Linley...
I love how this guy tells a story. He pulls u in so magnificently, so vividly that u feel like ur walking the streets with the ppl. U feel like ur one of the cops trying to Crack a case. U feel like the killer, stalking his prey. Or the victim feeling stalked n afraid.

She was so foolish. She was happy until she believed the nonsense of one man. All she had to do was ask her employer about possible suitors who are rich, and give his name. She could tell her if that's true.
As fortunate as she was, she should've waited for better prospects.
Even worse, she killed the very man who could get her out of her miserable situation
that's what i thought when i watched it.
Exactly!!
She was a psychopath. Simplest answer. It’s not all reason. These kinds of Criminals are driven by urges, basically, they are narcissists. They want what they want and will do anything to get it. One thing leads to another. The liar will steal and the thief will kill.
Why did she kill the wrong man ?!!!!!
I absolutely love Murder Maps
This is part of murder maps?! I've seen it lmao and still I'm like O.O Ahahaha I've seen so many now that I forgot some, ah well at least I know it's gonna be good and not some obscure garbage I found. I've seen so many terrible horror movies too xD
Edit I just noticed the title ahaha can you tell how tired I am? 😂

It amazes me how people of all cultures don't see the mistake of putting sewage into their source of drinking water! Craziness
Disgusting huh
Susan Jane: Looks like people if nothing else would not like the idea of drinking their own or other peoples defecation and urine.
@Fred Smith I know for sure that I wouldn't drink water from where sewage has been put into unless there was a water filtration system to remove fecal matter and urine.
My ancestors valued fresh everything. When their living area started to get nasty, they would pick up and move.
Why the fuck does anyone want to live in any fucking city stacked on top of eachother like that is beyond me. I grew up on a farm in Kentucky, it was hard sometimes, but still pretty great. We never put our outhouse within 100 yards of the well, you just don't want to do that. When I was 9 the folks sold the farm and bought two bars in Lexington, the rest of my youth was spent there. It was pretty great too. After school I worked in Cincinnati for a year and a half, then moved to San Francisco Bay Area. Little bit of culture shock, not too bad.
Got sick a few times when I first got there. Being exposed to all kinds of shit, it took a little while build up immunity to all that bullshit, after 6 months I never had any more problems with the exception of H1N1, that sucked, but it was also 15 years later too.
Anyway, I did well, made a shit-ton of money, but there's just too many fucking people there!!
I couldn't take that shit anymore!!
I had grown to hate being there, and was just fucking miserable, so I sold my company and moved to Nor-Cal, the Trinity Alps.
FUCKING AWESOME!!
I would go weeks at a time without seeing ANYONE!! Beautiful!!
3 years ago I had to move to Florida for my mother, I love her, but I really fucking hate it here, Sarasota isn't even really that big, but still, THERE'S WAY TOO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE HERE ALL STACKED UP ON TOP OF EACHOTHER!!!!
WHAT THE FUCK!?!
WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE BEING SO FUCKING CLOSE TO OTHER PEOPLE!?!
THIS WHOLE STATE SMELLS LIKE THE THAMES RIVER BANK!!
Now I loved this! If this was a series I would love to see the other episodes. That narrator is a winner!
I watched the series on Netflix!
Murder maps
It's all over you Tube too.

There is another series he's in called Myths and Monsters. It's a lot of fun!
Spectacular work by the actors/staff of this production! It certainly kept me watching while learning some recent British history! And thanks for posting this series, it's so great to have access to varieties of productions from around the world now! It was a LOT of (expensive) work, to do this, in the daze of of eight foot diameter microwave dishes, analog, and C format/VHS/Pro Beta!
Most horrifying is that the Thames being sewage and the source of drinking water.
That was about 170 years ago! I don't think it is nowadays. However despite some improvements, London is still absolutely filthy.
Did you really think clean water was always there by the grace of god. No it took time and great minds to work it out. London was one of first countries who got clean water and sewers
@@ellymay1455 yeah I really did /sarcasm

It's amazing how homicide detectives some centuries ago were that good they could solve a murder case within a week, they even used dental works to identity the body, that was forensics at its infancy.

Actually, ‘dental work’ mostly meant pulling teeth, but the placement of the voids could have been a clue, of course.
A lot of innocent people were hung also.

I LOVE ❤️ this programme!!! As Dicken's Oliver Twist would say, "More please "
He has more videos, they are under the title of murder maps. Hope you enjoy them.
Yeah and he got kicked out into the streets for asking for more knowing he would but the older boys were going to beat him to a bloody pulp. Still want some more?
@@AmandaHugandKiss411 yes please sir may i have some more?
Talking of Oliver Twist I got to play him in a silent version. Of the film. I couldn’t have asked for more 👌❤️
@Rulya קארן Mórrigan did you understand the joke. There’s a part in the musical we’re Oliver asks for more food and is severely reprimanded So my joke was it was a silent movie and I couldn’t have asked for more. I hope you have now got the joke 👌👌👌❤️❤️
Surprising how quickly the murderers were located and arrested. They didn't have photography back then, yet they were identified by others based on their written published descriptions. You would think that they could have faded into the crowds and disappeared.
That Mrs. Manning was identified is less surprising, given that it appears that she had a French accent, easily identifiable as foreign and European.
Maybe sketches of them were published. But even then, I'm still surprised at how quickly the husband at least, who didn't have a foreign accent, were tracked down. Maybe he had a more unusual or distinctive appearance?
They both should have headed to a port city, some city that was teeming with transient people and new arrivals. Why didn't Maria at least, get herself over to France? It's the closest foreign country, and she spoke French.
I think they both underestimated the abilities of the police, and to be fair, the work they did on this case and their ability to track them down so quickly was pretty impressive for the times.
@@SY-ok2dq Wasn't she Swiss? Not French?
They DID have photography.....have you not seen the photos of the Ripper victims.

Remarkable narration of an old crime story.
Murder Maps is one of my all time favorite true crime series!
I really don’t understand how any human beings think money is worth more than a life
Because it is. I'm slowly dying because i cant afford $6,000 for surgery. I wont live to 40, i got 6 years left, max. Ppl spend more on a pair of shoes or purse than my entire life is worth... ppl who say you can't place a monetary value on life have obviously never been sick in America...
It is more important to you, it's a sorry world when you can't get surgery for your life because of money, I would be in the same situation if my health was not good, I'm financially poor, but thankfully health rich, I hope it's not too painful for you, I do have an OUT if the tables turn, be prepared!

Im glad i found this channel, I need some new documentaries to watch. This place has hours upon hours worth.
absolutely rivetting and professional. Looking forward to more episodes. Narration perfect.
For some reason, a woman murdering after seducing a man, is more disturbing to me than other murders.
Fantastic presentation, thank you.
I love a social history lesson from a talented teacher, with real life case studies woven in and this had everything, including Charles Dickens, whose work I love.
His Hortense in Bleak House is a creepy and memorable character.
"Please Sir, I want some more"😁🇦🇺

Yes, these Nicholas Day's tales are choral, varying in tone
The narrator is simply splendid
I just saw another series he's in called "Myths and Monsters". Lots of cool stories, cool art and his awesome narrating!
Why did she kill the man that would have treated her better than her alcoholic husband? She should have divorced and married Patrick. I know things were different back then but she should have left her husband. I never 👎🏽 want to witness an execution, it’s seems awful 😞. So sad, she choose the WRONG husband. I did love the PBS interpretation of Bleak House.
in victorian era women were properties they didn’t have a right even to own their house or their inheritance unless they were married. divorce was an option only for rich men and only if parliament approved it. so no. she couldn’t leave her husband or run away with rich guy or divorce that alcoholic piece. women endured much pain in those times.
@@minastirith997 I agree with most of what you say, but she could certainly have left her husband if she wanted to. She wouldn’t have been able to get a divorce, but even in that era women could and did leave unhappy marriages.
I loved Bleak House.
Bleak House goes right along with Nicholas Nickleby.
I'll have to check it out. Martin Chezzlewit is awesome!
This is a fantastic production thank you for everything.
Boy my feet are sore from walking and I’m ready to go to sleep. I’ve nearly done 4 hours of not smoking. I watch true crime documentaries every day and I wonder what will be so shocking about the case that inspired Charles Dickens.
Very Interesting and Informative...I like the Narration by Nicholas Day...An Interesting Fact I learned today that Urine was used for Tanning Process.
I can just imagine the Stench, and it's also Very Unsanitary.
Why didn’t she just leave her alcoholic husband for the wealthy man who wanted to marry her? Unbelievable! What a horrific betrayal and murder of this poor man who had feelings for her.
I’ve heard this crime covered elsewhere, but it definitely wasn’t done this well!
What an excellent narrator for these true crime tales, absolutely fascinating!!!🙏😢
This narration is amazing!
Damn...you make me stay up the whole night. Your videos are so irresistible. Keep it coming!
Great stories Also , his voice is just right for these presentation
Dickens was no angel; the way he treated his wife was appalling.
Like Dr. Martin Luther King! I used to idolise that man, until I recently found out that he would not permit his wife to join the civil rights movement, although she desperately wanted to. Makes you think. Equality for all citizens??
@@mfjdv2020 Did you ever think he wanted her to say alive to raise the kids. He KNEW he was gonna get killed.
@@mfjdv2020 He was a womanizer, for that he was trash but he kept her home for the safety of her and the children. How can you be this nonsensical?
@@mfjdv2020 If that's the worst thing you can say about him, the man's an angel. Well, he was no angel but he was a good man, important for the civil rights movement. He's done more for the nation than those who criticize him have done.
@@mfjdv2020
actually it would have been very dangerous for her and he knew it . . .
I used to love MLK Jr, but became disillusioned when I found out he had a love affair while he was married . . .

This kind of story telling makes me proud to be British.
I would have taken Patrick's help to get rid off my no good husband Frederick and not the other way around . The murder was not the mistake ; who was murdered , was .
+ Taps Ars I thought that Marie and Patrick were going to murder the drunkard husband. I was shocked when Marie shot Patrick!!!🤷🏾
@@liesdamnliesandstatsweird1934 me too I was shocked 😮
she didnt want patrick. she wanted money and to be alone
@@julianakleijn9254 Very true . If she had cared for Patrick genuinely then he would have found a way to get rid of the drunkard Frederick and they could have been together forever . Patrick would have kept her in style . Which sort of idiot kills a financially strong man with the help of a penniless drunkard ???
@@barbarazurek4648 How do you know that Patrick had no teeth ?
I didn't see that coming. What a twist. What a tale and excellently told.
Who is the narrator, please? He is excellent. A very well presented program. Our taste for bloody
and gruesome crimes has not abated - at least they are on film and not live. But mobs have often
cheered about cruel and unusual crimes and punishments. See the French Revolution, among
other mass ogling of gruesome executions. Sadly, brutality seems to be part of our history and
they have a weird fascination for us.
On IMDB it say Nicholas Day is the presenter.
Mob hysteria?
Well documented and narrated, I like crime stories non fiction. I am subscribing!

I love Charles Dickens, super happy to see you cover this.
Which of the Dickens books? We had to read them all for English Honours and I started with 'Sketches by Boz' and read right through to 'The mystery of Edwin Drood'.
@@corneliawissing7950 wow, quite an accomplishment!
@@peggyjaeger9280 , In my time, the Prof. said: 'Read this' and one did. We read from Plautus, through Sophocles and Aristophanes right to Shakespeare and D.H. Lawrence ... that was simply the given syllabus for an Honours degree in English. It never dawned on us that one could enrol at uni and insist on not doing that amount of work! Or insist on changing the syllabus to our taste. We were students, not activists and knew nothing about being woke.
@@corneliawissing7950 You had an excellent education. I didn’t know what I wanted in college and I was kind of slow. I just love to read and am not good on tests. My tastes are all over the place so I read a lot of different authors and genres. Dickens books are long so I have only read a few. I do enjoy getting lost in his world. He really brings it to life! Will have to read Bleak House now!
@@peggyjaeger9280 , I wanted, more than anything else, to read and know. I still read: classics to sci-fi to true crime to history ... I think the best thing that ever happened to me was that I was given a bursary-loan to attend uni. (The bursary part one worked back, the loan part one paid back.) The most wonderful thing was the day the rector spoke to the 1st year students: part of the initiation. He explained that whether we had loans, or bursaries or wealthy parents, the state also supported our study, from taxpayer money. Therefore, whatever qualification we were pursuing, and whatever part of the country we were going to work in, we had a debt to pay. We owed the local farmer, and grocer and doctor and policeman a debt of gratitude for enabling us and we were obligated to give back of what they'd given us. At 78 years old, I still give back, even if I only explain active and passive to a child. I had, indeed, a good education and it was more than literature!
The best coverage of the Bermondsey Horror that I've seen so far. Poor Patrick O'Connor .
Brilliant narrator! would love to hear audiobooks from him
As someone said of him on another video, he could read the AT&T terms and conditions and we'd be riveted.
This narrator is fabulous!
This was a really stupid crime.
But the actress captured Marie Manning just exactly as I imagined her when I first heard this story.
Stupid as in the two were stupid enough to think they could get away with murder? Or as stupid as the crime of murder?
Hopefully the former.
I think Marie Manning was stuoid because she'd have gained more if she'd just left william for O'connor
Most criminals are stupid irl.
@@sophia-logos5348 yes. She killed the goose that laid the golden eggs.

That was an excellent documentary, thank you very much.
The lack of hygiene seems obvious to us now, but the concept of germs was not widely known about in the mid-19th century. The Theory of Germ Disease was only developed in the 1850's by Louis Pasteur. You'd think the smell and taste of river water would be a bit of a red flag though.
Being an alcoholic was healthier then drinking the water. As far as Mrs Manning goes for someone who claimed not to have committed murder she sure wasn't against trying to profit from it.
It just goes to show that we haven't changed our fascination with murder and the punishment given. Only today, we can't turn up to be entertained with the supposed justice (a life for a life).
15:12 More a reference to Poe instead of Dickens, but this part reminded me of "The Telltale Heart"
Beautifully done! Great vid! Thank you
Thank you so much for uploading this video. It is helping me get through the pandemic!
Thomas Wainwright was transported to Tasmania. He was a gifted writer and artist - His portraits of the colonists are especially interesting. Beautiful and delicate, somewhat somber and strange.
In the light of his crimes they have a surreal air.
Amazing he was able to work at all after being put in the road gangs. Notoriously brutal conditions.
His crimes however were also brutal.
He died from a stroke aged 53.
So the people down under are descendants from criminals? Not surprised at all.
This was very well done, overall, and the actors in the dramatization were very convincing, despite the extremely cheesy “blood” graphics, etc. One major point is lacking, however, and that is the explanation of the murder of the wrong man! I should have thought that, had Maria murdered her husband with her lover, then she would have had a much better chance at getting away with it, her lover being far more intelligent than her husband. At that point, she was sure of her lover’s wealth, and marriage to him instead of a chronic alcoholic would have given her a much better life, in my opinion! Maybe her nature required her to exert control over the man she was with, but she made so many stupid mistakes that a clearer head was obviously needed.
I agree.... she should have stuck with the smart, wealthy lover!
I thought the same thing... why didn't she murder the drunk an she wouldn't have had to done any work after that..
That's the real mystery ...why did she choose the guy she did, instead of the guy with money? And even if she'd been misled by Manning's promise of wealth, once she found out, why not leave him? So much not known here
‘…WAS a dangerous place’??? Not ‘was’ - IS!! It’s worse now than ever.
What a fabulous production, thank you!
Why didn't she just leave her husband for Patrick??
As always. Money and status.
If she did that, we wouldn't be watching this video about her 172 years later, would we ? 😂🤔
Gosh, Victorian England had a lot of insane serial killers.
Hardly surprising really. The Victorian age was brutal, inhuman and disgustingly hypocritical. Children lay dead on the streets in the poor quarters and venereal disease (especially syphilis) was rife, to name but two horrific examples. In my opinion this was the absolute worst age in recent British history.
i'm sure this is even more gruesome than when it was on tv!! wouldn't surprise me if they'd had to cut a couple of shots to get it shown at the time.
I live off Bermondsey Rd in Toronto. Thats what drew me here.
Brilliant story, makes me wonder if any of my ancestors brutally killed anyone, makes me shiver at the very thought🌿🌷
...
🤔 haha indeed, I'm still young. 😀👍
Well if you're British... they most likely did.
Of course at least one of your ancestors has killed someone. Think of how many people you are related to...and then the apes you are related to before they became humans. Lol
Hello Linda,how are you doing?
I think drinking alcohol would probably help keep off the cholera if it made you drink less water.
I suppose it depended how much you drank.
Too much and you'd be thirsty again.
I believe it was in Kentucky, in one if the cholera epidemics, the town drunk became a local hero. He never caught it because he never drank water. He took it upon himself to collect the bodies of the dead, took them to the cemeteries, and buried them. No one asked him to do it, or ordered him. Everyone else was too sick or too scared to take care of the bodies. After the epidemic, he went back to being a drunken layabout.

Sir Robert Peel (1788-1850) a Skillful Politican became Home Secretary in 1822, and carefully made police reforms without arousing the public fear of intimidation.
He believed in crime prevention rather than relieving on punishment as a deterrent.
In 1829, Legislation was passed by Parliament to establish the Metropolitan Police in London, a single Force for an area roughly within a circle of seven miles from the centre of London.
Sir Charles Rowan & Sir Richard Mayne became the first joint Commissioners with their Headquarters in for Whitehall Place known as Scotland Yard.
Rumpole once called the bottle of wine that he had just purchased, 'Chateau La Themes De Embacamonte.' The etching at 2:00, shows the location.
Everyday people lived longer and better lives in towns and areas outside of London in the 18th century . There was common land to grow crops and raise animals for dairy or for food. The taking away of the commons by British wealthy and nobility for their pompous ass farming and sheep and whatever grazing, drove rural and small town workers into London . Industrialization in the All out capitalism of the type for the richest , terrible work conditions, long all week work in shops, children too in the mills and shops , no relief , etc drove a lot more poor people to suicide than were murdered . and their were a lot more murders of the poor nobody cared about left unsolved.
Squonk tears:Childhood,real childhood as we know it,only really began in the C20.Before that,children were expected to work asap to keep the family.And rich children were hampered by etiquette & learning to make good marriages to enrich the family status & coffers.

The premise of this story is nothing new - married woman has an affair, then she and her husband kill her lover for profit. They were just as sloppy as most killers, and were hanged for their deed. Just ask Mr Sherlock Holmes.

You said a mouthful when you said that people have an insatiable desire for gruesome stories. I watched this to see what inspired an author to write a book. I seldom watch any thing on tv because of this hang up that humans seem to have. I feel like every day reality can be scary enough with out adding invented morbidity or capitaliz ing on sick realities. People say crimes are awful, but yet cant seem to get enough. It is very interesting what captures the human mind. Almost a more interesting subject than the crimes themselves!
Loving this vid I see you did your history digging
interesting story but I'm horrified how awful it was to live in those times 😢😢
Some situations in England aren't a whole lot better today.
Looking at the blood splatter in the murder scene makes me wonder if the house is still standing if anything remains.
I can’t imagine there would be hangings these days, even if you knew without a doubt that the murderer did it for no defensive purpose.
Also just have to say the background music is really pretty at times.
Probably demolished during Victorian slum clearance or destroyed during the Blitz.

@@susanmccormick6022 yes I understand but I still don't want to live in a city that has many evil people who like to kill others
Nobody in their right mind would want to live in London at any time in the past, present or future. It's a total cesspit, always has been and always will be.
Here's a History Fact.
A Major - Problem at the Time with during the Victorian Era was Drunkenness!
Amongst the people of the public and the police themselves.
Many of the original Peelers were dismissed within ten years for being drunk on duty!
As well as arresting drunks, the Constables had to cope with all manner of public duties, including Fighting Fires, Breaking up fights in streets or lanes, Petty Felony, as well as Serious Crime.
The new police tended to be Thief Catchers, not Detectives.
