EP5: The Drunken Stabbing

In May 1891, a married couple, desperate for money, decide to leave family and friends in Bristol to walk to Manchester for the possibility of work. They have their travels cut short by a heinous crime in Thornbury. What led up to it and what happened next! A look into life at a time of hardship and struggles in the South West of England.

Crafted by a self confessed history geek who enjoys those stories from the past that might have been forgotten, The Backtracker History Show is first aired on Bradley Stoke FM in Bristol, England, before being plonked onto the podcast stage for all to enjoy!
