Summary
Late at night, many of us congregate at the local taxi rank waiting for that lift home. The mood is often light-hearted as people chat and laugh with others across the whole cross-section of society.
But sometimes, often fuelled by drink or drugs, the mood turns sour and can lead to aggressive and violent behaviour. This was the case at a taxi rank in Norwich, Norfolk in 2008.
And what happened next is covered in this episode of the UK True Crime Weekly Podcast.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to episode 106 of the UK True Crime Weekly Podcasts. I'm Adam. |
| 0:07.0 | Thank you for joining me today. The story today is from Norwich in the east of England. |
| 0:12.3 | It features one of the key themes of this podcast, which is that life can be progressing wonderfully |
| 0:18.2 | when out of nowhere everything changes in that one split second. And that's what happens |
| 0:24.1 | today, where one man innocently stumbles on an incident involving people he doesn't |
| 0:29.6 | know and how he chose to react to this incident, changed everything. I'm delighted that |
| 0:35.6 | this week's episode is sponsored by Hangman, the new high-concept thriller from the international |
| 0:42.0 | bestselling author of Ragdoll down your coal. Have you ready yet? I have, and I couldn't |
| 0:48.8 | put it down. This book is perfect for us fans of true crime, as well as anyone who loves |
| 0:54.3 | a gritty thriller. The writing is just fantastic, with quick-quitted and pacy dialogue, but |
| 1:00.6 | don't just take my word for it. Daniel Cole has big fans in this genre, like MJ Arlidge, |
| 1:07.1 | who said of Ragdoll, a brilliant, breathless thriller, and bestseller Rachel Abbott has |
| 1:12.5 | called Cole a star. Hangman has all the elements you love from Fantastic, cat-a-mouse thrillers |
| 1:18.6 | like the bone collector. You can't help but keep turning the page as the body's mounts, |
| 1:24.7 | and the brilliantly core lead character DCI Amly Baxter, races against time to stop the |
| 1:30.6 | utterly gruesome murderer, who always seems to be one step ahead. Hangman is published |
| 1:35.5 | by his repays and is out now in payback from all good bookshops, who of course can be bought |
| 1:41.2 | online right now. Go and buy your copy of Hangman today. You will love the book and |
| 1:47.0 | also support this podcast. Thank you. I'd also like to say a big thank you to my supporters |

| 1:58.6 | week's new members of this select group, that Sarah Cameron, Trace Eginity, Steph Bennett |
