This week we conclude our series on history's most famous forensic pathologist by charting his fall from grace across the span of two decades.


Starting in 1926 we discuss how Bernard's reputation was finally challenged, and how he proved to be unable to adapt to an ever changing legal and medical landscape. Though that being said, the quality of his personal grooming and tailored suits was never brought into question.


With stories of bigamy (that definitely happened), matricide (which almost certainly didn't) and a dog with murderous intent (you will need to decide for yourself), this episode is an epic conclusion to Sir Bernard's story in every sense of the word.
