Before a new series of Intrigue arrives, we’re sharing a story from another BBC podcast.
Killer On The Ward is the latest series in Disclosure Investigates, the award-winning investigations podcast from the Disclosure team in Scotland. It’s the story of Colin Norris, a former staff nurse, who, in 2008, was convicted of killing four elderly patients and attempting to murder a fifth. The legal case has given investigative journalist Louise Shorter more sleepless nights than any other story. Did Colin Norris kill his patients? Or has the UK spent two decades believing the wrong story?
This is Episode 1. To hear every episode of Killer On The Ward, search for Disclosure Investigates and listen first on BBC Sounds.
