We’re all guilty of turning a blind eye to certain people, the homeless especially.

Sometimes it’s easier to pretend people on the fringes of society don’t exist.

But what if the blind eye you were turning was doing more than protecting your conscience from guilty thoughts?

What if it was also providing the cover for a serial killer?

A new podcast produced by Irish network RTE and Danish broadcaster Third Ear examines the case of Kieran Patrick Kelly over six episodes in The Nobody Zone.

In London, 1983, a homeless Irishman called Kieran Patrick Kelly was arrested on Clapham Common for stealing a wedding ring, only to murder another man in his police cell.

If what Kieran was saying was true, it would make him one of Britain’s most prolific serial killers.

But you probably haven’t heard his name – so what happened?

The Nobody Zone delves into the case and asks if the crimes of a mass murderer have been covered up…

The jobs you don’t get can haunt you. Just ask actor and comedian Connor Ratliff, one of the stars of the excellent Marvellous Mrs. Maisel.

In this offbeat podcast he embarks upon a quest to solve a very stupid mystery that has haunted him for two decades – why Tom Hanks fired him from a small role in the 2001 HBO mini-series, Band Of Brothers – supposedly for having “dead eyes”…
