Emma and Lucy lend their usual dark comedy to the tales of Gemma Barker (don't google it first, you'll ruin it!) and Robert Elmer Kleason. This episode contains one transatlantic murderer, and one story with tales of non-consensual sexual acts. There is some clicking during the first 20 minutes, but to edit them out you'd have to wait another week. So no 1* reviews please, but we are still accepting 5* reviews with open arms.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week there is some semblance of an episode in between Emma's worrying rants about the Unabomber. Please do not encourage her further. Despite that, there's another horrific story of a doctor, who exploited his position to do away with people and a man who decided that you can't kill one twin without killing the other...  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Technical issues mean that the tale of George Psalmanazar has been cut slightly short... Before his death, he went on to become a theological essayist and friend of Samuel Johnson (author of the flipping dictionary), but I'm sure you'll agree that none of that is as interesting as his life as an imposter. Lucy also discusses her research into the crimes of Mike Philpott, who was definitely one of Jeremy Kyle's worst guests...  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
