I learned more reading a couple newspaper articles then I did listening to the entire podcast. Also it hasn't included any case updates.

I wish there was more, but I know it's not possible.

The production values are good, and the English accents are enjoyable to listen to, but the podcasts says next to nothing over 10 episodes. As one example, an entire episode is devoted to an interview of the former police typist. We learn she started the job at the age of 21, she typed the reports the detectives gave her, and she met Elsie Frost's family a few times but just to say hello. She had nothing to say about the case, or any other case, or police procedure, or, well, anything. The entire podcast is like that, meandering and pointless. Spoiler alert: the sum total of actual information is that Elsie's brother gets to see a file, and he learns that the body was discovered at 4:15 instead of 4:30, a fact to which they ascribe no significance whatsoever. There, I just saved you a couple of hours of your life.

Absolutely terrible. Boring meandering story with no answer at the end. Should be titled "who killed Elsie frost? We have no idea and just plan on wasting your time "

This is so good. The interviews were very respectful and really brought you into the setting of the sixties. It was painful hearing of all the suffering due to one evil person. Poor Elsie. Her best friend recounting writing a letter was heart breaking. I wish the killer could be prosecuted. I wonder if the man in the boat was fully investigated. Peace to the survivors and RIP Elsie. Very well done podcast- the story needs to be told.

The story here is one that everyone deserves to know, but how it is presented is just slapdash and rather tired. Mosh mash interviews that go far too long, with really interesting pieces mentioned in passing and never explored. Elsie deserves a better piece that frames her as a person and outlines the crime, versus archiving what is left of those involved. This ends with a few random theories, ignoring any real investigation work. It is unfortunate for everyone involved.

So much happier than Serial. With Serial, a man is stuck in prison. With Elsie a community lost its innocence when Elsie died. A man was quickly accused but found innocent in a terrifyingly twisted Catch-22 court system where he was tried twice and twice declared innocent. Tune in for the rest of this compelling series.
