Holding the Rope- The Victorian History of Hanging
Burning, Boiling and Beheadings, Oh my! The evolution of the Victorian capital punishment system will surely knock your socks off. So, call a carriage and break out your best cigars, as we navigate the eerily quiet, early morning streets of London to attend a public execution.  The Devil's Dinner Hour is a one-woman show, written, performed and produced by Evelyn James. © Music By: Fesliyan Studios Like the podcast?
