Welcome to Murder Mile, a true crime podcast, an audio-guided walk of London's most notorious

and often forgotten murder cases, all set within one square mile of the West End.

Today's episode is a guided walk of Soho's deadliest terror attack.

It's the true story of how a deeply deluded neo-Nazi, fueled by hatred, bigotry and ignorance,

tried to divide the wonderfully diverse melting pot of London

with a series of terrifying bomb attacks.

But this is not his story, and neither should it be, as this is a story about friendship,

tolerance and love.

Murdamel contains vivid descriptions which may not be suitable for those of a sensitive disposition,

as well as photos, videos and maps, which accompany this series,

so that no matter where you listen to this podcast, you'll feel like you're actually there.

My name is Michael. I am your tour guide, and this is Murder Mile.

Episode 5

The Bombing of the Admiral Duncan

Today, once again, I am standing on Old Compton Street in Soho, W1, a place that avid

murder-mile listeners will be very familiar with.

As 50 paces to my left is the blood-soaked bed of the West End prostitute known as Dutch Lear,

and 50 paces to my right is the gutter, where the West End gangster, Tony Meller, met a sticky

end after a lifetime of cruelty.

And yet, if you walk down Old Compton Street today, having listened to earlier episodes,

you'd probably expect to see the street strewn with half-dissected horse, drool in dead-eyed stranglers,

and two-bit hoods, decorating every wall with a funky new colour called hint of brain.
