I welcome Martin Brunt to the show in this interview episode to discuss his career as a crime correspondent.Since joining Sky News for its launch in 1989, Martin has delivered a series of exclusive reports while covering the Cromwell Street killings, the murder of TV presenter Jill Dando, the trial of terrorist Carlos the Jackal, the London 7/7 bombings, the disappearance of Madeleine McCann and the Hatton Garden diamond heist.Before Sky News launched, he was chief reporter at the Sunday Mirror and worked for local newspapers in Kent.Martin is known for his unparalleled connections and specialist knowledge that allow him to see beyond a specific crime and view the context in which it has been committed.A police press officer once told a rival reporter: "Ask Martin Brunt. He knows everything before we do."Martin's first book, 'No One Got Cracked Over the Head for No Reason: Dispatches from a Crime Reporter', was released on April 25, 2023, and is available to purchase here:No One Got Cracked Over the Head for No Reason | Biteback Publishing***This interview was recorded on June 5, 2023.For all things British Murders, please visit my website:https://www.britishmurders.com/Intro music:David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'https://linktr.ee/davidjohnbradymusic Hosted on Acast.
