<p>Geoffrey and Molly Wansell confront Britain’s most chilling killer, Robert Maudsley, the man the tabloids dubbed <em>Hannibal the Cannibal</em>. Locked away in a glass cell beneath Wakefield Prison, Maudsley has spent decades in near-total isolation after a string of murders so brutal they shocked even hardened detectives. But who is the man behind the monster?</p><br><p>With Geoffrey’s trademark precision and Molly’s probing curiosity, <em>Blood Ties</em> digs into Maudsley’s tragic childhood, his descent into violence, and the media myth that turned him into a British bogeyman. Was he born evil or made by a system that failed him?</p><br><p>This is <em>Blood Ties</em> at its most provocative: a gripping, fearless look at one of Britain’s darkest souls and the uncomfortable truths that lie behind the nickname <em>Hannibal the Cannibal</em>.</p><br><p>CREDITS:&nbsp;</p><p>Presenters: Geoffrey and Molly Wansell</p><p>Producer: Peter Shevlin <a href="https://pod60.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pod60.com/</a></p><p>Artwork: George Leigh</p><p>Music: Dan Wansell</p><br><p>CONTACT:&nbsp;</p><p>Twitter: @BloodTies_Pod</p><p>Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/bloodtiespodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bloodtiespodcast</a></p><p>Email: [email protected]&nbsp;</p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcast</a></p><p>Support:<a href="https://www.patreon.com/bloodtiespodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> patreon.com/bloodtiespodcast</a></p><br><p>Please complete our survey if you have time: <a href="https://acast-d25653fd59cf.intercom-clicks.com/via/e?ob=rRcrAvOZV%2Fut%2BAPdNuvccj3EQZGwUiJxe4XOxAcwbs8YRv75jNSOVHxUCfD17cz5&amp;h=fd1ad7db8e54d5091c275f6e4f0d4bb62926e760-ayi0335i_215470942531590" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/bloodtiespodcast-survey</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
