Sarah, where's the car? It's gone. It's not gone. It's with Fixter. Since you never

0:04.4

got round to MOT, I took care of it. Fixter? Fixter's great! They pick up your car, drive

0:09.5

it to the garage, handle the MOT, then drive it straight back to you. Sounds expensive?

0:13.2

Don't worry. They negotiate their prices with their partner garages and the car pickup

0:16.8

services included. So since that's all handled, how about you take a look at that leaky tab

0:20.8

or do you need me to fix that too? For easy car maintenance, head to fixter.co.uk. We'll

committing serious crimes by putting them in prison. What is the point of that? Why do we do that?

1:38.0

Hello and welcome to Trigonometry. I'm Francis Foster. I'm Constantine Kissinger.

1:42.8

And this is a show for you, if you want honest conversations with fascinating people.

1:47.6

A terrific guest down, police to say, is a recently retired old Bailey judge and the author of a

1:53.1

recent book called Unlawful Killings, Wendy Joseph Casey. Welcome to Trigonometry.

1:57.9

Thank you for having me. It was such a pleasure to have you on the show. I swallowed your book

2:02.8

basically in an evening. It was that good. And we'll talk more about everything to do with that.
