On a quiet summer night in Tooting, five litres of petrol were poured through a family's letterbox and lit. By morning sisters Nabiha and Maleha Masud were dying in hospital. The attack came without warning, leaving detectives and the girls grieving mother, desperate to understand why. 

Join Hannah and Rachel as they unpick a case of shocking entitlement and the devastating consequences of unchecked obsession. We also explore the legal aftermath, including rare appeals and how 'life' sentences actually work when the killer is a child. 

 Before diving into the horror of the case, as always we go off the rails in the best way — debating whether sharks belong in baths, who really needs hobbies, and why Hannah once rugby tackled a child at Madame Tussauds.

There’s also some musings on ghost sightings in swimming pools and a very emotional chat about identity and invisible labour in relationships. Standard stuff, really.
