Why isn't this man on tv?! This is better than 99% of the true crime docs on! He deserves a damn good pay raise lol

This man looks and sounds like the perfect narrator for Victorian Era cases! I'm hooked to this channel

This is such a sad case, not just for Julia Thomas, but for also for Kate Webster's 5 year old son. 😢

I just love how you’re dressed appropriately and accordingly with the stories’ time period. ❤️ thanks for the upload.

Most disturbing, the deceased woman was considered elderly at age 52 😭😖

Honestly the best narrator for these videos!! ICONIC!!

Please consider doing a piece on Tarrare - the 18th century French soldier and performer who would eat anything including children. His medical condition is still a mystery to this day. Thanks!

This story is truly harrowing. People like the murderer could be our neighbours, employers, etc and sometimes we might be none the wiser. Truly horrifying to think what some people are capable of. Marvelous video as always!

This is brilliant! This channel takes me back to the old discovery channel before it became a reality channel.

The bit about the skull found over a century later, whilst excavating Hole in the Wall Pub😳 Now that’s the icing on the story. Cheers from Australia 🐨❤️🇦🇺

And then suddenly ... I was obsessed. A beautifully narrated piece, with stunning locations. A host that couldn't be more dapper, mixed with interesting historical moments, Well I Never.

Can’t help but wonder what happened to her son ?

The David Attenborough connection was so cool. Great story.

Hard to believe the skull was found 100yrs later!! Wow, very interesting story..

Dude, you look like you just walked out of the 19th century. What a great look for an historian. I love history, thank you so much.

I can listen to this man speak forever. And I love seeing him outside in front of the landmarks. Fabulous!!

I love how respectful you are when speaking of even Ms. Webster.

I loved that you visited and showed the church that they attended, I think it adds a different feel to all of these true crime videos. Great story telling!

Stumbled on this site whilst watching a video on my TV. I am impressed by the way you describe everything in a straightforward manner, relating the facts as they are. The first video I watched was Sweet Fanny Adams, in my 60s although using the phrase on many occasions was not aware of the meaning behind it. Poor Fanny Adams may she RIP Bless her.

Hi I only stumbled across your channel a few days ago..,LOVE LOVE these old true crime stories.. NOW I'm like an excited kid in a lolly shop..I'm 60..I hop into bed at night with my eyepad and so look forward to my bedtime stories. .WOW..You definately don't disappoint..it's exciting when you go out and about to places..GREAT NARRATOR.. Thank you so much ..Job well done Goodnight and stay safe everyone from New Zealand

Sir, you are doing masterpieces with covering these harrowing cases. Thank you.

I live near Richmond and know about this case, but still very fascinating to hear the details again.💀

My husband is a decendent of hers. The family's version of this is wildly crazier than common understanding of her crimes.

Ya just never know who you might be letting into your life that can destroy and end your world. That poor woman never knew she let the devil into her parlor when she hired her. Your voice and presentation are on point.

I hv heard many of the cases u cover from other channels i enjoy...i still appreciate relistening to each and every one with you. Your general filming style, editting, and voice bring something different and much needed. Ty

What a ghastly tale! It's always amazing what the Victorian crooks and ne'r-do-wells of the day thought they could get away. with. Gruesome doesn't begin to explain it. Sir David was the last person I expected to turn up at the end of this story. Really great video. ❤️

Omg I got 16 seconds in, saw this man, and subscribed instantly.

The victim was 52 years of age and described as old. I suppose in those days 52 was considered old 🤔

I really liked how you visited the place where it happened. It brought the story alive. I hope you continue doing this.

Love your calm voice and clean language, Mr. Brodie.

I'm just finding this channel and love it, I also say, "well I never" all the time but then say, "at this rate, I never will!"😆

I love this narrator and he is so dapper in his appearance. Perfect for these stories. I can't wait for more!

Very well done and interesting thank you so much for these riveting stories it’s very important not to forget the past

I remember a Deadly Women episode that had this story in it. They did say she gave the “human lard” to some men at the pub but idk if they had a source for that or not. I specifically remember this homicide because of that part.

Stumbled across your channel the other day and since then I have watched almost every video you have uploaded.. I am absolutely hooked on your story telling and subbed almost immediately! this episode also did not disappoint! Thank you so much for the content you create! looking forward to more in the future!

I enjoy the way you tell the story!

How amazing that the missing skull turned up all that time later! What a truly horrific crime. Love the way you tell the stories Paul, thank you so much

I love this kind of old crimes stories 👌👏🏼

Thank you! And I love the fact that you show the real places where these stories took place. Amazing killer this woman.

Never heard of her..so thank you for sharing this story. Love your voice you're perfect for this

Another great episode I especially liked the visits to the old builds & areas where it took place!! Well done sir keep it up 👍🏻

I really enjoy hearing these true stories, we would never know otherwise. 🙄

I've been binge watching your videos for 3 hours, I think I'm hooked. Your delivery is 2nd to none very informative, calm, respectful and interesting. Thank you for your hard work.

Love the narration ! Well done !

To the narrator, thank you for all this great history, I wish you could be my history teacher for your videos and info to the topic is detailed and fascinates me a lot

I love your videos!! My heart jumped for joy when you were actually at the location looking so smartly dressed in era appropriate clothing! Added an extra layer of brilliance to your channel 🎉

I would love to see you do a video on Blanche Monnier. That was a truly shocking evil and tragic story.

Storytime with Mr Brodie. Cautionary tales are so interesting. Don’t live alone, don’t talk to strangers and run away if in doubt. Don’t let anyone suspicious talk you around. And don’t let people ignore you if you try to tell them that you saw something suspicious.

Once again, your compassionate yet unbiased account has impressed me almost beyond words. Very few others, I think, could cover such a hideous crime while still giving off such a consistent sense that the culprit, too, was a human being before all else. It's clear throughout this installment that your greatest sympathy goes to the victim and to Webster's son, but it seems equally apparent to me that you never once allowed yourself to forget that Webster, too, was at the end of the day a woman with wants and needs - though an extremely selfish one who committed an absolutely hideous crime. Not all of my friends enjoy the darkest parts of history as I do; even so, I'm recommending this channel to them, too, because I think your ability to state the facts of each case without falling into gimmicks or taking sides (even when the side you're on is as clear as it is in this one) makes these stories easier to learn about, and easier to process afterwards. Thank you, sir.

This channel is truly a little wonder. Stories are immensely interesting and presented in such a way that is rather captivating. Thank you - "Well, I never".

I love the way you carry yourself The way you narrate the stories. So well paced and methodical I don’t watch these videos for the horrible things people do; rather I’m here for you, thank you. I feel like I’m learning something new about literature and the pacing of sentences, basically how to be well articulated whenever speaking. You do that so very well. 🙏🏾💪🏾

This is a time machine! Excellently narrated, I was clutching my pearls through this ghastly case!

One of my favourite channels

Magnificent. Also, you look like my Dad!

"chopped up the "old" woman?? She was only in her 50s! Interesting tale though, and well told!

This is really interesting to learn about. And I just love that you head out to the actual locations for no other reason than that it's neat! It's cool to see how those locations of yee oldee crimes have changed over the years

I have been looking for a channel that features victoria and edwardian Era true crime for so long. I am so excited I found this channel! Please, don't stop what you're doing, there aren't very many others out there who cover this type of content. Thank you!

This absolutely hits the spot. Perfect! I look forward to more.
