Was that the actual last episode of The Pitt? Did they run out of money and shot the last 4 minutes in a park whilst the characters threw empty beer cans and ruminated at each other? What? I was crying four minutes ago and then this mad end? …

"A humane, poignant story of a hard life and its impact on others and a reminder that people are complex, contradictory and vulnerable. [Last Rights] was quiet, sad and absolutely riveting" Great to see Last Rights in @teddyjamieson.bsky.social's radio review www.heraldscotland.com/life_style/2...

Anyone who is interested in true crime podcasts, particularly investigations and learning more about the truth surrounding the victims and how they are often mishandled and mistreated, then check out "The creation of Bible John" by @audreygillan.bsky.social it's incredible.

Last autumn, out of the blue, Tara's estranged brother got in contact with @audreygillan.bsky.social - to let her know that Tara had died. Something he had only discovered months after the fact because of a message from a company of 'heir hunters'

Audrey Gillan's original documentary series on Tara and George was amazing - made with such tenacity and compassion. I don't doubt this follow-up, produced in the wake of Tara's death, will be equally brilliant though sad. On R4 tomorrow at 7.15pm.

In 2018, I sat down on a doorstep beside two rough sleepers & recorded their lives. The R4 series Tara & George asked what led the couple to the streets. Last autumn, I was contacted by Tara’s brother, Shaun. She’s dead. Sun 16 Feb on BBC Radio 4 at 715pm & BBC Sounds. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
