Introducing In Court

Available for over a year

Join us inside the Old Bailey to follow the trial of Constance Marten, from Dorset, and Mark Gordon, from London, who are charged with causing the death of their new-born child after a body was found in a shed on an allotment near Brighton in March 2023 – both Ms Marten and Mr Gordon deny the charges against them. On this weekly series you will hear arguments from both the prosecution and the defence whilst combing through the crucial evidence that was heard in court with our journalists Jo Palmer and Luke de Costa. You will also get a behind the scenes look at how major criminal cases like this one play out with the help of expert guests who reveal the inner workings and processes of crime and prosecution. This weekly series is only available on BBC Sounds. Presenter and Producer: Luke de Costa Writer and Reporter: Jo Palmer Graphics: Ed Houghton Executive Producer: Peter Cooke
