Fringe theatre upstairs. True crime downstairs. Sheep theft somewhere along the way.

In this episode, we head to Islington — the London borough that clearly never got the memo about moderation. First stop: The Old Red Lion, a pub-turned-fringe-theatre-turned-launchpad for BAFTA and Olivier winners. Also: the site of 16th-century sword fights, pint glass capers, and at least one suspiciously emotional fashion criminal.

Then it’s a short walk (and a long fall from grace) to The Castle, where in 2015, a group of retirees planned the Hatton Garden heist over beers and crisps.

It’s the kind of episode that makes you think, “You can’t make this stuff up”.
