Hello everyone. Welcome to Blood Ties. I'm Geoffrey Wansaw and I'm afraid I'm on my own today because Molly is

out otherwise engaged on doing many important things. So this is a solo. In fact there are

going to be two solos this week and next week. So let's plenty to look forward to. I'm going

back into the theatre quite shortly to do the show I did with David Soucher on tour and then in the West End.

So we're going to the Hampstead Theatre to do it again for 18 performances, which I think will be fun.

I'm also trying to put together more Patreon material for you. 18 performances, which I think will be fun.

I'm also trying to put together more Patreon material for you, which I'm very conscious I haven't been doing enough of, but I'll do that too.

So with your forbearance and a bit of good luck, I should be able to entertain you. But most of all, of course, I should thank you to entertain you.

But most of all, of course, I should thank you for being there.

Thank you for listening.

Thank you for taking so much trouble and so much time to support me and Molly

in this extraordinary world of podcasting, which when we started back in 2017, it was comparatively small.

But now it's, of course, enormous, which is rather wonderful in a way.

For some elderly gent like me, it's quite extraordinary privilege to be there with you.

But thank you for your support, as they say.

So today's story, which as I said is going to be in two parts, concerns one of the most

horrible, brutal, vicious, extraordinary men in modern British criminal history.

I think one detective described him memorably as the most ruthless man I ever met.

And his name was Kenneth Regan. The most ruthless man I ever met.

And his name was Kenneth Regan.

But his nickname was Captain Cash.

So this is the story of Captain Cash. Kenneth Regan was born Kenneth Avery.
