Step back into Britain’s 1920s — a decade of seaside holidays, smoky music halls, and scandals lurking just beneath respectability. In this 2-hour British true crime compilation, we revisit seven real-life murder cases that shocked the nation between 1919 and 1929.

These are the stories of stage stars who vanished, children betrayed by those closest to them, seaside romances that ended in bloodshed, and midnight fires that concealed darker truths. Each case is a reminder that even in an age of jazz and optimism, crime cast a long shadow.
