EXCLUSIVE: The notorious London underground killer is being explored in a feature doc by Prime Video UK and Ireland.
The London Underground Killerdelves into the life of an Irish vagrant by the name of Kieran Kelly, who could possibly be one of the UK’s most prolific serial killers. He was arrested for petty theft in 1983, and whilst in his holding cell, killed his fellow inmate, strangling him with a pair of socks. In the subsequent police interviews, Kelly claimed to have murdered and attacked many more people, including pushing them in front of trains, setting others on fire, and even poisoning. He died in prison in 2001. Committed over a period of 30 years, his alleged crimes kicked off an investigation that delved into a hidden world of delusions, fear and desperation on the streets of London.
Woodcut Media, which makes a number of true crime docs for Amazon, is behind the feature. Executive producers are Matthew Gordon and Koulla Anastasi, producer is Emma Griffiths and Jo Conchie-Power is director. Woodcut is distributing.
“As we explore the life of Kieran Kelly, we shed some light on the inner workings of an individual who lived on the edge of society,” said Gordon. “His recollections of the heinous acts he claimed to have committed was confused by years of addiction and also his own mythology. This film questions not only the reality of these crimes but also society’s reaction to the violence carried out in an underground society that was hidden in plain sight.”
Prime Video has been delving further into the true crime space of late and has both greenlit or acquired Woodcut series such as Murder in a Tea Cup, Murder at First Swipe and The Murder of Sandra Rivett.

leaving the duke on his own during his quick trip.And while it’s not the first time the “Suits” alum left her husband to his own devices on home soil, Markle jetted off to Nigeria this week, where she’ll be reunited with the duke on Thursday.“Meghan seems to spend a lot of time in LA at home, she doesn’t tend to come over to the UK that much,” Grand Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales, exclusively told The Post.“I would have thought she would have wanted to come over and support Harry because the Invictus Games is a big part of his life, but it does seem odd.”“I don’t know if that’s because of what’s happened or because she is family orientated and wants to spend her time with the family,” he said on behalf of Fruity Slots, noting that “there must be a reason for it.”“It does seem odd as to why she didn’t — I can only assume she wanted to stay home with the family, as that’s a big part of what she does,” Harrold added.Harry, 39, touched down in London on Tuesday to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.But as his estranged, cancer-stricken dad King Charles continues cancer treatment — much like the Princess of Wales to boot — questions were raised as to why Harry didn’t bring Archie and Lilibet with him so that they could see their ailing grandfather.According to Harrold, the exiled royal “was aware” of his father’s jam-packed schedule — making it “tricky” for the kids to come along.“The late Queen was always about family, that’s not to say that the King isn’t about family as well, but there’s obviously something going on for Harry to choose not to.”“There may be a plan for later in the year for Harry to bring them over, maybe when it’s quieter,” he added.
forced to check into a hotel room during his brief return to London this week.The Duke of Sussex, 39, touched down on home soil Tuesday to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.But as the royal rift between him and the Firm rages on, Harry reportedly set up camp at a luxe London hotel for his stay.“I think that just shows the state of the relationship between Harry and the family,” Grant Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales, exclusively told The Post.“Obviously Harry did have apartments at Clarence House. Clarence House is a huge property — it just goes to show the divisions between him and the family.”“If you come to the UK and you have family here, you would probably stay with them, wouldn’t you? I think it’s a very clear signal that the relationship between Harry and his family has deteriorated,” Harrold said on behalf of Fruity Slots, adding that the situation is “sad.”The Post has reached out to Harry’s reps for comment.Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, were last year evicted from Frogmore Cottage — a royal residence they thought would “always be there for them.”The pair were gifted the property’s rent lease by the late Queen Elizabeth II after their 2018 wedding.
