The Forgotten Thirteen | Part 1: Shattered Lives

The Forgotten Thirteen | Part 1: Shattered Lives

In the season 9 special, I tell the stories of Wilma McCann, Emily Jackson, Irene Richardson, Patricia Atkinson, Jayne MacDonald, Jean Jordan, Yvonne Pearson, Helen Rytka, Vera Millward, Josephine Whitaker, Barbara Leach, Margeurite Walls and Jacqueline Hill, who each lost their lives at the hands of Peter Sutcliffe, who many knew as "The Yorkshire Ripper".


This two-part episode will focus on the stories of those thirteen innocent women - whose names are too often forgotten - ensuring their lives are remembered and not overshadowed by the darkness that befell them.


In this first part, I explore the lives of Wilma, Emily, Irene, Patricia, Jayne and Jean, uncovering their stories, dreams, and aspirations.


I also delve into their respective murders, shedding light on the horrifying circumstances that cut their lives short.


I'll discuss the crimes' societal impact, the fear that gripped local communities, and the emotional toll endured by the victims' families and friends.


Next week I'll do the same with Yvonne, Helen, Vera, Josephine, Barbara, Margeurite and Jacqueline whilst also discussing Sutcliffe's arrest, trial and the case's aftermath.
