Case Reopened: The Salisbury Poisonings

As we move between the end of Season 14 and the start of Season 15, we’re opening the Seeing Red archives.

This week, we’re revisiting four cases that took place in the month of March across different years — remembering the victims and reflecting on crimes that continue to leave a lasting impact.

These episodes come from earlier in our catalogue, so you may notice a difference in audio quality as our production has evolved over time.

We’ll be back with our Season 15 premiere on Wednesday 18 March.

In March 2018, former Russian intelligence officer Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were poisoned with a military-grade nerve agent in Salisbury, England. The attack sparked an international crisis and placed countless others at risk, including police officer Nick Bailey and Dawn Sturgess, who later died after exposure. This episode examines the events and the human cost behind the headlines.
