| 5/19/26 |  Episode 016 - The Hammersmith Nude Murders (1964 - 1965) | In London in the 1880s, the city was gripped by fear. A killer was prowling the cobbled, fog heavy streets of Whitechapel murdering prostitutes in a chilling reign of terror. Fast forward seventy years and a new killer was on the loose, this time, not in the impoverished Victorian East End, but towards the west. Again his victims of choice would be prostitutes. Believed to have claimed anything up to possibly seven lives, or even more, his identity, again like the infamous Jack, was never discovered….or was it? The newspapers dubbed him The Nude Killer or Jack the Stripper and his crimes are now pretty much forgotten. At the time, his crimes led to one of the largest manhunts in British history with some famous suspects along the way. There would be links to high ranking officials, world famous sportsmen and the Profumo affair. Ladies and gentlemen, Rainbow Valley is proud to present the story of The Hammersmith Nude Murders.

| 5/19/26 |  Episode 015 - Matt Monro | It can certainly be safe to say that the 1960s produced some of the most dramatic changes in the world of popular music. From the early days of rock and roll, through to the swinging beat scene, the British invasion, American surf music and right through to the San Francisco sound of the peace and love generation, there was a voice that was there from the beginning. That voice was still there at the end of the decade and beyond. Sadly that voice is largely unknown to today's generation. Some of today's kids would probably only be vaguely familiar with it if they are fans of some of the biggest and most popular movies to come out of that decade. Matt Monro was described as the UK's answer to Frank Sinatra, a label he detested. For Matt Monro was not an answer to anything. Matt Monro was unique, he was his own entity, had his own marvellous style, and was possibly the finest male popular music singer the UK has ever produced.

| 5/19/26 |  Episode 017 - Hits and Headlines of 1963 | 1963 - a massive year in terms of news events. A year that would see an increase in tensions in America as the battle for racial equality raged on. It would be the year in which a scandal in the UK involving call girls, Russian spies and MPs , would eventually bring down the government. The Beatles would begin their dominance of the UK chart signalling the beginning of the British invasion, the Russians would make history as the first woman blasts off into space and Martin Luther King would declare to the world that he had a dream. Along with the Great Train Robbery, the beginning of what would become known as the Moors Murders, the death of the Pope, and the assassination of the US president it truly was one of the most remarkable twelve months in the swinging decade. Ladies and gentlemen, Rainbow Valley is proud to present the story of the hits and headlines from 1963. | — | ||||||
| 5/19/26 |  Episode 020 - David Frost, Emil Savundra, and the trial by television (1967) | Episode 020 of the Rainbow Valley podcast – telling the stories that made the swinging decade. Emil Savundra, for a brief period in the late sixties, was probably the most reviled man in the UK. A Sri Lankan swindler, the collapse of his Fire, Auto and Marine Insurance Company left about 400,000 motorists in the United Kingdom without coverage. As a post-war black marketeer, Savundra committed bribery and fraud on an international scale before settling in the UK to sell low-cost insurance in the fast-growing automotive market. By defaulting on mandatory securities, he funded a lavish lifestyle and travelled in fashionable circles. This attracted the attention of the press, who uncovered evidence of major fraud. In a TV interview with David Frost, Savundra demonstrated contempt for his defrauded customers (some of whom were in the studio audience) and denied any moral responsibility. That particular tv show witnessed the birth of trial by television and is a fascinating piece of broadcasting history. Ladies and gentlemen, Rainbow Valley is proud to present the story of David Frost, Emil Savundra, and the trial by television.

| 5/19/26 |  Episode 027 - 1966: The Year We Won...And Lost The World Cup | 1966: The Year We Won...And Lost The World Cup As we head rapidly towards the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar, you may be forgiven for thinking that this episode must surely recount the tale of how England won the world cup in the summer of 1966. You wouldn't be far off though as this episode of Rainbow Valley is the story of not how we won the World Cup that summer, but how we lost it. Three months before the World Cup finals were due to take place, the much coveted solid gold Jules Rimet trophy sat proudly on display in central London only to be stolen in what could only be described as a daylight robbery. Fast forward a week or so and the thief is apprehended but no sign of the most famous sporting trophy in world….until an incredible canine steps in to save the day.

| 5/19/26 |  Episode 025 - The Making Of Zulu (1964) | WE'RE BACK!! Our first episode in two years is finally with you – and it's a cracker. Join Scott as he tells the story of the making of the movie Zulu. RAINBOW VALLEY – THE MAKING OF ZULU Rainbow Valley is a monthly podcast where your host, Scott takes a look at key events and personalities that shaped one the most influential, vibrant, tumultuous and swinging decades in history. Join us as we celebrate the 1960's with the stories surrounding the music and news events of the decade that shook the world. 22nd January 1879, Rorkes Drift, Natal, South Africa. A remote mission station, the setting for one of the most famous, battles in British history. But until 1964 and the release of the movie Zulu, the story of the events of those ten hours were not particularly familiar to the British public. In reality, 100 British soldiers defended a series of attacks by approximately 4000 Zulu warriors. By the end of the battle, which lasted from late afternoon until dawn the following morning, 15 soldiers were dead, two mortally wounded and surrounding them, the bodies of some 350 Zulus Possibly one of the most celebrated and documented battles in British history you might think. But you would be wrong, for if it were not for the release of the movie 85 years later, it's likely it would have remained a mere postscript in the annals of military conflict. The story of the making of Zulu begins with a magazine article written in 1958 and takes us on a journey that will change the lives of many people along the way. People such as director, Cy Endfield, producer and actor Stanley Baker, Zulu tribal leader, Chief Buthelezi and a certain young actor from south London called Michael Caine. A movie that remained on cinema screens almost constantly for 12 years before becoming one of the most regarded and best loved British movies of all time, the story of its creation is almost worthy of a movie in its own right. Ladies and gentlemen, Rainbow Valley is proud to present the story of the making of Zulu. You can find all our previous episodes everywhere you download your podcasts.

| 5/19/26 |  Episode 023 - The Theft Of The Duke Of Wellington (1961) | The return of Rainbow Valley – the podcast that tells the stories about the swinging decade. Episode 023 The Theft Of The Duke Of Wellington Dr No, the first big screen outing for Ian Fleming's James Bond. Its 1962, and the movie would start to lay out a successful formula for most of the other movies that would follow in the series. Of course when we speak about Dr No, most of us will remember Bonds introduction at the casino, Ursula Andress as Honey Ryder emerging from the sea in 'that' bikini or the scene where the spider crawls up Sean Connery's arm. But what about this scene….and in particular, one specific moment. James Bond and Honey Ryder have just met the evil Dr No in his underground lair. Before crushing an ornament with his metal hand and telling the pair of SPECTRE's dastardly plan to hold the world to ransom, they are led away. As they walk up a small set of steps, Bond stops, noticing an oil painting on an easel to his right …. The painting was a portrait of Arthur Wellesly the first Duke of Wellington, painted by Francisco de Goya - and only several months before the release of Dr No it had been hanging on display in London's National Gallery. When it was stolen however, one early August morning, it made national and international headlines. The story would develop with an unlikely villain, who like Dr No, would hold the British government to ransom. A story that would span many decades and involve a high profile court case, the introduction of a new criminal offence, and, of all things….the British tv license!

Season three opens with the story of a sequence of film that runs for approximately 22 seconds. A piece of 8mm film that is only 25 feet in length and yet is possibly the most watched piece of celluloid in history….and certainly the most famous home movie ever. For within that 22 seconds, Dallas dress manufacturer, Abraham Zapruder managed to capture the death of the most powerful man on the planet on November 22nd 1963.

| 5/19/26 |  Episode 026 - The Big Freeze | The Big Freeze Boxing Day evening 1962 The Christmas Number One at the top of the hit parade was Return to Sender by Elvis Presley All around the country, families were settling down after a busy two days of eating, drinking and making merry. Small screen entertainment on the tv that evening included a hilarious variety show from the London Palladium featuring Bruce Forsyth and Norman Wisdom and the BBCs big Boxing Day movie was Moulin Rouge starring Jose Ferrer and Zsa Zsa Gabor And then, it began to snow. A day late and tantalisingly close to giving the country a proper White Christmas, but snow nevertheless. The temperature dropped…..and it continued to snow. And it snowed and snowed, and it got colder. And it snowed and it snowed some more And that was how it would be for the next one hundred days or so as Britain was plunged into an icy wilderness that would last until the following March. Industry ground to halt as businesses and schools were forced to close. There was widespread panic as ambulances and fire crews were unable to respond to emergencies. Essential supplies and medication failed to get through to hospitals and over half the natural wildlife population died in the freezing temperatures, unable to forage to food. Nothing could be done to stop the bitter temperatures and the relentless snowfall Ladies and gentlemen, Rainbow Valley is proud to present the story of The Big Freeze You can follow the podcast on Twitter @rv_podcast Join our Facebook group at Facebook/rainbowvalleypodcast Or send us your thoughts and feedback to rainbowvalleypod@gmail.com This has been a Stinking Pause production.

| 5/17/26 |  Episode 038 - The Mini | Rainbow Valley - telling the stories from the decade that shook the world. Episode 038 - The Mini This time on Rainbow Valley, we climb into one of the most famous little cars ever built and tell the story of how the Mini became so much more than four wheels and a cheeky grin. Born not from glamour, but from crisis, the Mini arrived in the shadow of Suez, petrol rationing and a Britain trying to work out what sort of country it wanted to be after empire. What began as an urgent answer to fuel shortages soon became a triumph of imagination, as Alec Issigonis and his team at BMC took the rulebook of car design, gave it a firm shake, and produced something tiny, clever and utterly revolutionary. But the Mini's real magic came when the 1960s caught up with it. Suddenly, this practical little economy car looked perfectly at home in a world of pop music, fashion, photography and youthful reinvention. It belonged outside ordinary homes, fashionable London flats, royal residences and Beatles garages alike. Then, as if that were not enough, it became a motorsport giant-killer, conquering Monte Carlo and proving that brains, balance and British cheek could still beat brute force. From Longbridge workshops to Carnaby Street cool, from Paddy Hopkirk's rally triumph to those immortal red, white and blue Minis in The Italian Job, this is the story of a car that somehow managed to be practical, stylish, rebellious and deeply lovable all at once.. Join Rainbow Valley for the birth of the Mini: the tiny machine that helped define the decade that shook the world.

| 1/6/18 |  Episode 014 - Dr No And The Birth Of James Bond On The Big Screen | The story of James Bond on the big screen is a tale of highs and lows, ups and downs, twists and turns. The story of the making of the movies themselves is worthy of an Ian Fleming novel in its own right. It is the story has taken over sixty years to tell, and is still being told today. As important to this story as Connery, Lazenby, Moore, Dalton, Brosnan and Craig is the story of three other men. The three men who between them managed to bring one of the most successful and well-loved movie franchises to the big screen. No journey into the world of cinematic Bond can begin without a look of the importance of Messrs' Fleming, Broccoli and Saltzman. To many people, James Bond is only an entity that can be found on the big screen. This, of course, is not the case. Bond was born long before 1962 when Sean Connery first introduced himself to Sylvia Trench at the casino in Dr No. Many have said that Ian Fleming himself was the basis for the character of Bond, but as you will soon hear, the inspiration for the world's most famous spy came from a variety of sources and influences. Ladies and gentlemen, Rainbow Valley is proud to present the story of Dr No and the birth of James Bond on the big screen | — | ||||||
