The former Crown Court judge examines some of Wales’ most compelling criminal cases in new Y Podlediad Trosedd podcast launching on 9 June
The BBC
In this gripping series, Nic applies expert legal insight alongside witness recollections and archive material to unpack some of Wales’ darkest cases – from well-known incidents to those that have been largely forgotten.
The series explores a wide range of harrowing stories, including the 1984 disappearance and death of Julie Clarke, a 17-year-old from Dwyran, Anglesey, whose body was later discovered in a woodland in Flintshire. It also revisits the case of the Darvell brothers, who were wrongfully imprisoned following the 1985 murder of Sandra Phillips in a Swansea sex shop. More recent cases are also examined, including the 2024 stabbing of two teachers and a pupil at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman and the 2025 fraud and bribery case involving former MEP and Reform UK Wales leader Nathan Gill.
Each episode features contributors who were involved at the time — including police officers, journalists and commentators such as Marian Wyn Jones, Meleri Williams, Garry Owen and Mared Gwyn. Together with Nic, they explore the circumstances of each case and consider their lasting impact on communities across Wales.
