Welcome to When It Goes Wrong, the podcast about disasters, accidents and when things fall apart. On this episode,  we will be discussing the crimes of Harold Shipman, a Hyde GP who over 30 years killed around 250 victims, mostly elderly women, by injecting them with diamorphine. We will cover his history, crimes and what this meant for the medical field.
