This week on Seeing Red, Bethan tells us about the shocking murder of Bei Carter, a popular guesthouse owner whose life was cut tragically short in the seaside town of Bridlington.
When Bei was found fatally stabbed inside her family-run guesthouse,... more

Bethan, your solo episode on baby Victoria’s tragic life and death was your best work. Your commitment to fairness, your loving compassion shone through. Despite difficulties, you honoured this little girl with your fierce yet fair telling of this story.
The level of care and attention take on this podcast makes it a more ethical true crime podcast. Similar to casefile where there is less hyperbole and more facts. There is banter but it definitely doesn’t waffle on. Great if you’re interested in true crime with a British focus. Just listen to the Steve Irwin episode and was very impressed. The departure from true crime was a great pallet cleanser and shows the quality of the show.
Fantastic true crime podcast! Pleasure to meet you both at CrimeCon Birmingham (Mark for the second time, Bethan the first) I am going back over all previously released and want to say a special thanks for the way you both correctly pronounced the name Hélène. The 18 year old witness of the train murder. Also - tell Mark to be careful with the opiates. 😉🤫🫶🏼
Bethan is ok but Mark drives me crazy with his attempts at psychology. Pretending to understand what it was like to raise a child with learning difficulties decades ago, even daring to suggest Lucy Letby probably became a nurse to be able to attack the vulnerable. This is all pure speculation going on in his head and he needs to wind it in, it’s not for public airing. The “caring” tone he affects while spouting this stuff doesn’t improve it in any shape or form.
What on earth has happened to Mark’s voice? Where has this attempt at a raspy ‘movie trailer’ voice come from? It’s like nails down a chalkboard. Mark’s laddish attitude towards women and people from the LGBTQ community is shocking. Mate, your bigotry is showing. Bethan’s whiny and breathy way of telling the story just makes the whole thing unlistenable. Who the heck PAYS for these people’s extra content?
