Fame Under Fire
BBC Sounds
Fame Under Fire is the BBC podcast following the world's biggest celebrity trials and the stories surrounding them. From the D4vd murder case to the trial of Duane "Keefe D" Davis over the shooting of Tupac Shakur, Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty takes you inside the courtroom and beyond the headlines, separating evidence from speculation as major legal cases unfold in real time.
With journalists, legal experts, and eyewitness reporting, we explain what happened in court, what it means legally, and why it matters culturally.
We examine the narratives that grow around high-profile cases and test them against the evidence.
This isn't a celebrity gossip show. It's a fact-led, accessible guide to the trials everyone is talking about, with serious analysis, sharp conversation and the occasional laugh along the way.
