Hosted by Yorkshireman Stuart Blues, the show covers listener suggested cases from across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Each episode examines what happened, how the case unfolded, and the wider social, cultural, and historical context surrounding the crime. The show covers British crime cases ranging from domestic abuse, coercive control, missing persons, policing failures, miscarriages of justice, and the long-term effects of violent crime on those left behind. With care, balance, and empathy, placing victims, not offenders, at the centre of every story, British Murders focuses on the human cost of murder and the lasting impact on families and communities. Alongside case deep dives, the podcast features conversations with journalists, authors, campaigners, and criminal justice professionals about responsible true crime storytelling.

Amie Gray and Leanne Miles are enjoying a peaceful Friday night catch-up, away from the crowds and noise of the nearby town. Within minutes, that calm is shattered when a stranger emerges from the darkness and launches a frenzied knife attack. Amie is killed at the scene. Leanne survives despite suffering catastrophic injuries. Neither woman had ever met their attacker before. As Dorset Police begin investigating what appears to be a completely random act of violence, detectives uncover a deeply disturbing trail of evidence stretching from Bournemouth to south London. CCTV footage, internet searches and travel records reveal that the attack was anything but spontaneous. Instead, investigators discover a young criminology student who had spent weeks researching murder investigations, CCTV coverage, forensic evidence, knives, and beaches across southern England before travelling more than 100 miles to carry out his plan. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues , we examine the murder of Amie Gray and the attempted murder of Leanne Miles. From Amie's life as a devoted wife, mum, coach and much-loved friend, to the terrifying events on Durley Chine Beach and the painstaking investigation that followed, we explore a case that shocked the nation and left a community searching for answers. We also examine the evidence presented at Winchester Crown Court, the psychological assessment of killer Nasen Saadi, his fascination with violent offenders, and the role that incel ideology was said to have played in the development of his worldview. This is a tragic case involving obsession, misogyny, meticulous planning, and the senseless murder of a woman whose famil…","meta_description":"Two friends sit beside a small fire on a quiet Bournemouth beach under the light of a full moon in May 2024.
