Crime World Extra: An award-winning year of true crime coverage

Nicola Tallant, Sunday World investigations editor
So we did it – we got through our first year on Crime World and managed to bag the 'Podcast of the Year' award along the way.
It’s been a whirlwind 12 months, covering the tales about criminals, drugs and the sins of the underworld.
So, now, Nicola Tallant takes a look back at some of the stories that made the headlines - both nationally and internationally - and the guests who have helped make us Ireland's No1 crime podcast.
Crime Word Podcast can be found on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Soundcloud.
