Jonathan Goodman author of the classic Wallace Case book passed away on January 10th. Really sad loss.

Sad news. He was an excellent writer. In my opinion, his book on the Wallace case was the best.

Thanks, Mark. Yes Jonathan Goodman was an excellent writer and will be missed. We will be running an obituary on him in Ripperologist. On another tack, if you haven't heard the news, you might like to know that Jeremy Beadle, who m/c'd the Maybrick Trial last May at the Liverpool Cricket Club is seriously ill with pneumonia in a north London hospital.

Hi Chris

Yes I read about Jeremy Beadle - bad news as well. Doesn't seem that long ago he was compering the Maybrick Trial.

You need a ticket to attend as space is limited. You can pick them up at reception of St George's Hall. These talks are part of a series of lunchtime talks. They take place between 12.30 and 13.30. If you get the programme for 08 for the first 3 months, it has details of all the talks in it.

Two events coming up in the next few months:

February 21: Lunchtime Talk: Crime and Punishment. Speaker is former policeman and Blue Badge guide John Edwards. He will be recounting some of the cases in St. George's Hall Learning Room.

March 27: Lunchtime Talk: Murder! The talk is by Frank Carlyle, with emphasis on some of the trials that took place. Again it is at St. George's Hall Learning Room.

Why can't they be at the weekend?
There;s no way I can make them cos I work full time.
I have to have my lunch at a set time.
Rubbish!

Thanks for that juliaoapw.
You're right DaisyChains - not everyone can get to these events - they should also have them at weekends (or evenings).

I would have liked to take my son to some of the talks, but he will be at school of course.

Very sad news
I actually picked up a book by Mr Goodman over the weekend and have been reading it today. How spooky
