S16E10: Disappearing Act | Lucky Lord Lucan: Act I (Done & Dunne Crossover)

Today we wanted to give you a glimpse of Alicia's other podcast, Done & Dunne! She's been hard at work on a five-part series on Lord Lucan, which is now live. We covered the 1974 disappearance of Lord Lucan following the grisly murder of his children's nanny a couple of years ago, and in this bingeable five-parter, Alicia goes much, much deeper into the case. Enjoy part one - and grab the rest at Done & Dunne wherever you listen to podcasts!

Welcome to Season 5 of Done & Dunne and our investigation into the mysterious vanishing of Richard John Bingham, the 7th Earl of Lucan, also known as Lucky.

John Bingham certainly started life on a lucky streak. This episode delves into Lord Lucan’s background, including his family, early childhood, and meeting his future wife Veronica Duncan. We also introduce our wide cast of characters, all playing in the hot spot of swinging 1960s London, John Aspinall’s Clermont Club, and Mark Birley’s Annabel’s.
