A Sorry Celebration

Introducing... Codename Badger

New from Always True Crime, here's the first episode of Codename Badger. A series that uncovers the true story of a mysterious spy who appears at the door of a grieving widow, claiming her husband’s death is not all it seems. What follows is a lifetime of secrecy, espionage and control. This is episode one: In 1955 Josephine Mills’ husband Robbie dies suddenly, leaving her the single parent to four young children. But just weeks after his death a stranger arrives at her door, to tell her that Robbie was murdered, and that he had been working for the intelligence services. It’s a conversation that will change the course of Josephine, and her children’s, whole life forever. John was held prisoner by the Nazis in wartime and he’s still carrying the scars - both physical and mental, and Josephine is happy to care for him. But he brings chaos into her life.
