An Appointment With Murder
Podcast Description
An Appointment With Murder is a forensic examination of those who kill.

From the calculated crimes of Dr Harold Shipman to the dark legacy of Dr John Bodkin-Adams, this series delves deep into the minds, methods, and motivations of medical murderers.
Hosted by Dr Andrew Johns, a leading forensic psychiatrist who spent years inside Broadmoor Hospital with some of Britain’s most infamous killers, and Dr Harry Brunjes, physician, expert witness, and senior figure in medical ethics, An Appointment with Murder is where medicine meets malice.
