It's a good one I think- and not the one more recently shown.

That's a good one...just watched it again. Thanks for the reminder Kat !


Tracy...

Only one *mistake*. Anyone know which?

Was it when they were talking about Lizzie but showing a picture of Bridget ?


Tracy...

Oops, you're right!

I was thinking tho of Mrs. Thibault saying the Borden's bodies were stored on the dining room table.
Everything else, word spoken, was correct. That's unusual too, that the number of blows were correct.

So maybe two little boo-boos ?


Tracy...

Well, the folks we know who were interviewed had no control over the visuals.
So I'd say the experts were spot on, except for the DR table thing.

It's a weird thing to interview for a show and have no control over what they use.

Today, May 15, 10am and 4pm Eastern on the History Channel, showings of "The Strange Case of Lizzie Borden".

The description from Direct-TV simply reads "Grisly murder". I'd say that have that right.

Thanks Harry, I missed it!
I think I have it on tape tho.
Did anyone catch it?
I wonder why Lizzie programs are popping up on TV in May?
Sweeps? Is she that popular?

YES - she is that popular. I think David Kent says it all when he writes on page one of The Sourcebook: *

"The Borden murders are to the United States what the Jack the Ripper murders are to England."
