This chapter recounts a dramatic escape of Lady Lucan after a harrowing attack, where she cleverly plays along to survive and ultimately seeks help in a crowded pub. It highlights the shocking contrast between her aristocratic background and the lives of ordinary pub-goers as she urgently calls for assistance. The narrative deepens as it explores the mysterious circumstances surrounding the incident, raising questions about social status, legal privilege, and the potential for powerful figures to evade justice.

Talking about the story of Lord Lucan, the British aristocrat who disappeared in 1974 after the murder of his nanny and attempted murder of his wife. Lord Lucan is an infamous name in Britain, and the story of his disappearance is a compelling glimpse into a life of privilege, high-stakes gambling, and unresolved mystery. I am joined by Alastair Budge, who covered this story for one of his podcast episodes, and we discuss it in detail.
