BBC South West journalist Emily Wood first joined us, a few moons ago, to talk perimenopause. Today, she returns in an entirely different capacity, to share one of the most personal and compelling investigations we've ever heard.Emily has created True Crime Tuesday currently airing on BBC Radio Devon Daytimes and it’s a deeply personal reinvestigation into the murder of her great aunt, Eva Porter, killed in Clapham in 1935.What began as her mum exploring the family tree became something far bigger: a cold case reinvestigation, a journey through the London Archives, 83 pages of a coroner's report, and an unexpected thread connecting the case to Devon's most famous daughter, Agatha Christie.But at its heart, this is about something we care deeply about: women's history. The real kind. Eva was a young woman who left home at 17 with ambitions, who became a single mother doing whatever she had to do to survive, and who was ultimately reduced to a headline about how she died. Emily has spent many hours making sure that is not where her story ends.Because how many Eva’s are there? How many women's lives were shaped or crushed by the world they were born into, and then quietly forgotten?In this episode we ask Emily: when did curiosity become investigation? What did 83 pages of a coroner's report reveal? What was life really like for women in 1930s London? What is the Agatha Christie connection? And what has it meant to give Eva her name back?Stick around for some beautiful inspiration to carry you through the week. 💛True Crime Tuesday is currently airing on BBC Radio Devon Daytimes. Emily Wood:Instagram: @emilys.woodBBC Sounds: BBC Radio DevonLinkedIn: @Emily Wood☕ SUBSCRIBE for honest chats on women’s health, feminist issues, sisterhood & smashing the patriarchy, one cuppa at a time.💛 Enjoying the podcast?
