Having already seen the last 3 1988 episodes (they’ve already been on TH-cam for some time but your uploads are of better quality) I really appreciate you uploading this first 1989 instalment!
What a sinking feeling you get when you find out some of these cases remain unsolved, over 30 years later. Derek Brann, the Folkestone taxi driver who was murdered, for example. The case being solved wouldn't bring him back, but I cannot begin to imagine how the family and friends feel knowing Derek's killer has presumably been living his life ever since the day they killed him.
The majority of murders featured were not solved. Police would usually only consider Crimewatch if traditional methods of appealing weren’t delivering the goods.
Also red card thank you so much for your sterling service towards the true crime community! So sad that lots of these unsolved murders featured seem to have been forgotten in the passage of time. But you never know maybe by uploading all these episodes one or two of these crimes could yet be solved.
Aww I'm sadded 😢 Harry Howell murder is still unsolved. Is the taxi driver murder solved? Its Strange watching a Crimewatch UK episode that aried over 2 years and 2 months before I was born! Thanks redcard for being the 1St to upload a 1989 episode and a better copy of December 1988. Much appreciated 👍
Nope, the taxi driver case remains unsolved-but police last year were reviewing the case & making appeals in the regional papers & on our local news shows. There is desperately little out there about it-likely due to how long ago it happened & little for them to go on sadly-I think it is one that will never be solved, they do have DNA now due to advances, but no match-so unless one of the killers relatives gets nicked & has DNA taken it probably will remain a mystery. The thing that surprises me is he was only 48, just going by his pictures I would put him at 68. www.kentonline.co.uk/folkestone/news/derek-brann-cold-case-murder-appeal-leads-135334/ localrags.co.uk/index.php/2017/11/6/dna-clues-could-help-detectives-solve-mystery-of-folkestone-taxi-drivers-murder-in-1988/
A bit mean! Though to be fair, he didn't exactly look like the _healthiest_ specimen of someone his age either. Probably a drinker by the looks of things.
Lynette White. Five men charged, all innocent. All forced confessions, three men had to spend time in prison before the case was thrown out. This makes me so angry. There’s a doco now on the iPlayer. A Killing In Tiger Bay, but there are only a few weeks left to watch it.
Thanks very much for these 80's episodes, redcard74. I grew up watching CW and never missed it. It's great to be able to re-watch these old episodes! Hope you've got plenty more still to come; it's the highlight of my night to check around 10.30pm and see if there is another episode to watch. Thanks again.
The Harry Howell case was quite a sad affair, the night I watched this a few weeks ago & went to bed with a heavy heart & the fact it's still unsolved makes it more depressing.
Googled the Buxton Manor Hotel in Blackpool (because I'm a sad get like that) and it still exists but renamed as The Calypso Hotel. The reviews on tripadvisor are hilarious.
Blackpool is an utter hell hole. Apparently has the highest number of convicted sex offenders in the UK there. There have been some pretty horrific crimes in Blackpool.
Poor Harry my heart breaks for him even though it's such an old case. He was probably just proud of being good at saving money and ended up telling people. The wardens and also his relatives should have been more vigilant! Did nobody try and phone him in those two weeks...
My grandfather went like that towards the end, going around boasting about how much money he had (in reality it wasn't all that much) to everyone he bumped into - I think it was to do with his dementia.
After all these years, since ‘89 no one has been charged for the murder of Derek.. still often talked about down here in Folkestone. RIP Derek, sad for your family too.
To tell you the truth, I wouldn't want for people to be checking in/up on myself. My independence and privacy is *invaluable* to me. What I believe they have in Japan, is a "monitoring" system that detects the activation and deactivation, of electrical appliances, water taps, and light switches. The implication being that a complete absence of their activation/deactivaton, suggests that something unfortunate might have happened. Call buttons placed in multiple, reachable areas in every room - that can't be pressed inadvertently - would also be a good idea. Safe, strangle-free pull cords could also be fitted in the bathrooms/wetrooms for the same purpose. Being checked in/up on is very debilitating, as it can exacerbate one's sense of being "impaired" - the letterbox really should be the most "intrusive" form of communication - all voluntary offers of services that can be provided when things aren't going well should be posted through the door - and that's it.
@@letsdiscussitoversometea8479 If there is no activity with lights, etc, it could be you are away on holiday, so you don't want folks breaking in to see if you are still alive. You would have to remember to tell the wardens you were going away for a few days.
@@treasurehunteruk9718 Then I think that in *addition* to the other idea, an "asymmetrical" front door lock could be utilised, which would inform the warden that somebody has locked the front door from the outside (with a very specific type of key), so that any visitors who come along and lock the door won't change the status of the "monitoring" system, but the actual resident _themselves,_ could use this specific key, to lock the door and thereby inform the warden that the resident has left the property for an indeterminate period. The key itself could double as a sort of "tracking" device which could activate voluntarily, have a "decline call" type-button if the warden tries to "call" it to establish your location, and maybe "ping" outside locations every so often (unless the resident forcibly disables this when still indoors). So it still keeps the "safeguarding" option open as the default setting, but offers the option of privacy to those who choose to exercise it.

@@user-zr3pj5tk7k I suppose folks who had things stolen from their big houses, want to know where their worldly goods went.

It's none the more relevant how old the episode is. A lot of cases shown on Crimewatch in that period has to this day *never* been solved. And, sadly, highly unlikely ever will do.

Poor Harry Howell. Unfortunately I believe that by telling random strangers that he had a little bit tucked away, the wrong person has become aware of that situation and somehow became more aware and knowledgeable of Harrys circumstances.
Poor Derek Brann, what monsters would do that. Shame to hear it's still unsolved, but with DNA and advances in forensics the killers could still be found.
I'd like to swap a Sierra RS500 Cosworth for a couple of stuffed cashboxes ... although, having said that, an RS500 recently sold for £115,000 so it might not be worth all the effort...
I suspect so-after a good search I found something from Hansard later in this month on a discussion about crimes on the underground & what needs to be done, a lord mentions this & another attack & he says both cases resulted in arrests, so assume we will get an update in the February or March edition. Nothing else online so assume it just another of those pre-internet cases where details are impossible to come by.. It is quite a way down the page at 5.58 PM from Lord Brabazon Of Tara. api.parliament.uk/historic-hansard/lords/1989/jan/26/london-underground-crime
I love the way there seems to be a professional standard or code of ethics for armed robbers. It’s fine to enter someone’s house wearing a balaclava and point a gun in someone’s face but hitting or shooting the householder is poor form?
Oh dear, I hate that I laughed but the older gentleman saying "what the hell are doing" (16:08) when the robbers burst in the bathroom made me do so. Hope they get the two-they were nastier then they need to be especially to the women.
I think the men being battered was worse, don't you? I'm sure the man with 45 stitches in his head would rather have been shouted at and jostled a bit like the women were.
Sadly, Liverpool was one of the places hardest hit by the massive poverty caused by deindustrialisation in the 80s. There were several riots. The famous TV drama "Boys from the black stuff" was set in Liverpool in the 80s and followed the chaos caused to so many families by mass unemployment. As so often in situations like that, there was a huge crime wave.
Whereabouts? Is it more common in 21st century UK? I've found, as someone who feels sometimes you need to "pick" an identity in the workplace (eg the "joker", the "reliable but boring one", the "so attractive everyone's scared of you" one (usually female), and the "rich, refined one") that making it clear in a nice way you're richer than most people there tends to isolate you a bit and doesn't work out well
Not sure but chances are they probably were. Crystal clear pictures of their face & names was plastered everywhere as we have just seen. But I do know one thing, William Grant who was also on the photocall was later infamous as big in the gangland underworld. Linked to the murder of Great train robber Charlie Wilson, who was shot dead in Marbella. Also linked to a massive drug cartel in Ireland.
Nope-police here appealed for information last year & have a working DNA sample now-but it doesn't match anybody on the database, so the chances of catching him/them are slim.
Sadly, I don't think hardly, if any, of these unsolved murders shown here or on CW in the 1980s will be solved now. If they are/ever do, it *will* be somewhat of a miracle. All due to the lack of DNA/tracing/forensics/CCTV at the period, whilst the increase of time gives anyone involved with solving the case over 30 years later too little to go on. It's *desperately* sad, I do know. Especially for the loved ones who cannot get closure from it.
Unsolved Mysteries did the same thing on a lot of their reconstructions. On an Open Air segment from this year I posted on another of these videos Nick Ross says they had a lot of complaints about the show being too graphic, so maybe this was a compromise the producers & hosts reached.
My mother had the EXACT same orange calendar shown at 37:40.
It still shows the same date she left her home and moved into another type of accommodation.

I think what’s more disturbing is the killers have perhaps seen these episodes of themselves
The theory about the taxi driver murder seems strange to me, they only panicked and decided to take him to hospital after stabbing him 34 times?!
Cat L exactly my thoughts too. The coppers hadn’t quite thought that one through had they!
More likely he/they got spooked by something. Cannot see stabbing somebody that many times & you aren't trying to kill them.

Unsolved Mysteries did the same thing on a lot of their reconstructions. On an Open Air segment from this year I posted on another of these videos Nick Ross says they had a lot of complaints about the show being too graphic, so maybe this was a compromise the producers & hosts reached.
Hi I thought it was the robbers just showing their scouse humour
who killed the old man in the flats plz

I thought John Lennon died in 1980
He did. Hatchet-Job got it wrong, the silly old policeman.
So many murders unsolved!
So sad isn't it. The tragedy is that if they'd happened now, they probably would have been solved quite quickly.
Taxi driver murder never solved. Along with so many others.why?
Less DNA technology , no mobile phones used then, less CCTV in buildings and street areas
@@09weenic bollox do you know how many of these cases are unsolved. 3 in 4.

I was hoping that Susie would return to the Jennifer Rush look for 1989. But no.
