Send us Fan Mail A feud can start with ego, territory, and fear, but it only lasts decades when the stakes are bigger than pride. We follow the brutal, sprawling war between Paul Ferris, a young enforcer raised in Glasgow’s harsh schemes, and Tam McGraw, a protected figure worth tens of millions who seems to move through the city with a licence to do as he pleases. The story builds towards a street encounter in 2002, a knife fight measured in seconds and consequences measured in years. We ta...

Send us Fan Mail A bank safe in central Glasgow is opened on a Monday morning and it is simply empty. No smashed counters, no injured staff, no dramatic shootout, just a silence where a king’s ransom used to be. We dig into the 1811 theft from the Paisley Union Bank on Ingram Street, a meticulously planned housebreaking that would be worth roughly £13 million today, and we ask the uncomfortable question: how do you defend against criminals who treat your locks like a solvable puzzle? W...

Send us Fan Mail A front door that should be locked sits slightly open, and a family’s ordinary Tuesday in the Gorbals becomes a nightmare that still echoes through Glasgow’s true crime history. We retell the murder of 13-year-old Tracy Main at Norfolk Court, from the quiet details of her schoolday routine to the moment her mum returns home and realises something is terribly wrong. The post-mortem is brutal, the murder weapon is never found, and the lack of forensic evidence leaves investigat...

Send us Fan Mail Six murders, years of rumours, and a two-word warning that still chills Glasgow: “Be aware”. We take you back to the 1990s, when women working the city’s streets began sharing whispers about dangerous clients and suspicious vehicles, and when each new killing deepened the sense that someone was hunting the most vulnerable. Alongside the headlines sits the reality of the time, shaped by poverty, addiction, homelessness and thin support services, and by a public conversation th...

Send us Fan Mail A city can look familiar in daylight and still keep secrets in its parks after dark. We head to Glasgow Green in the late 1950s, where a short run of attacks leaves three men dead and one young survivor with wounds that never quite fit a simple explanation. The killings feel linked by more than geography: lone nights out, last sightings with unidentified men, and the same kind of sharp double-bladed weapon. Even when police search, question, and comb the ground, the trail kee...

Send us Fan Mail A pub car park should be the last place a peace-maker dies, yet that’s exactly where Thomas “Tam” Cameron is gunned down in Bishopbriggs after trying to settle a debt that isn’t even his. We walk you through the Glasgow gangland backdrop of the mid-2000s, when heroin money and squeezed supply lines turn neighbourhoods like Possil Park and Milton into contested ground and make “collectors” more feared than the people they work for. At the centre are Billy Bates and Derek “Dac...

Send us Fan Mail A white van screeches into a Milton street as the sun drops over Glasgow. Kids are still outside. Seconds later, a shotgun is raised and John McGregor is shot dead. That brutal moment in 2021 is the centre of this story, but the roots run much deeper and far darker than one night’s violence. We follow the chain back to 2010 and the daylight execution of Kevin “Gerbil” Carroll, a feared Daniel-linked enforcer whose death never fully settled, even after a conviction. A later p...

Send us Fan Mail A Saturday morning routine should not end in a national tragedy, yet that is exactly what happens in Clydebank when 15-year-old Paige Doherty sets off for work and never arrives. We walk through who Paige is beyond the headlines: a small, energetic teenager with a sharp sense of humour, a close bond with her mum, and a clear dream of building a future in beauty and hairdressing. That normality is what makes the silence that morning so frightening, and why her disappearance is...

Send us Fan Mail A red light in Maryhill. A silver BMW waiting in traffic. A masked man steps out of a black Ford S-Max and fires six shots before disappearing into side streets. That’s the opening moment we can’t shake, because it shows how quickly everyday life in Glasgow can collide with a feud that has been building for years. We walk through who Kenny Riley was, why a £100,000 drug debt is never just about money, and how postcode loyalty in Possilpark and Maryhill turns into something l...

Send us Fan Mail Eight murders in one square mile. No convictions. And a trail of families left with nothing but rumours, court transcripts, and the sickening sense that everyone knows more than they will ever say. We take you into Glasgow’s “Murder Mile” in the Gorbals and Loriston, where violence repeats across decades and the justice system keeps coming up empty. We start with John Lynch in 1964, a father who steps off a bus after taking his children to see Santa and vanishes into t...
