Hello and welcome to episode 48 of the UK True Crime Weekly Podcast. I'm Adam.

A huge thank you to my new supporters on Patreon this week. That's Kilogram Jam, what a

great name. Bronti Docti and to Andrew Billington for increasing his support. I hope the three

of you enjoy bonus episode 8 that was released on Sunday and thank you all so much for your

support on Patreon. It's much appreciated.

Now have you ever been involved in public disorder? Maybe at a football match or else even a full

blown riot? If so, you will know it can be a terrifying experience. And today we look at a

series of riots in northern cities in the UK in the summer of 2001, concentrating on events in

the town of Oldham. But before we get started, quick word from the sponsors of today's show,

Tide.co. Let's face it, if you run a small business, the high street banks are just rubbish,

aren't they? Weeks to set up an account, unjustified fees, no features you need and are they just so

slow. At Tide.co you don't have to put up with this anymore. Contact them today to take advantage

of an offer for listeners to this podcast of six months of free transfers. Let's be clear,

this is at 100% free account for six months before going to a pay-as-you-go account with no monthly

fees ever. To take advantage of this offer, please head to Tide.co-thru-crime and use the promo code

true-crime. That is Tide.co-thru-crime and use the promo code true-crime. Undelighted that today's

show is also sponsored by Harries. As you know, Harries products give me the best shave I've ever

had for my delicate skin and I always use their products. Why wouldn't I? I don't have to fight

my way around the supermarket, paying premium prices but can have it all delivered to my door.

All for a great price. Please join me and many others today by making your first order at Harries

for the special offer price of just £2.95 for which you'll receive a razor handle,
