On Easter weekend 1955, Ruth Ellis reached her breaking point.
After years of jealousy, violence, and betrayal, she spent a long, sleepless night replaying the wreckage of her life — and blaming one man: David Blakely. By Easter Sunday, her rage would boil over into an act that would shock Britain and seal her fate as the last woman hanged in the UK.
In this episode, we follow Ruth’s final hours before the shooting — a day marked by obsessive phone calls, tense stakeouts, and a simmering fury that would explode in front of witnesses. This is the moment where obsession turned deadly.
🔍 Part Five picks up the story in the final hours before the shooting — the culmination of a deadly obsession.
🎧 Listen now to uncover the tragic and tense moments before Ruth Ellis pulled the trigger.
