Tortoise Investigates

Tortoise Investigates is the home of Tortoise's award-winning investigative series.

Listen to our latest series Who Trolled Amber?, TimeOut's #1 recommended podcast of 2024. Millions of us watched the celebrity trial of the century, Depp v Heard, in 2022. Amber Heard lost and Johnny Depp was vindicated. But what if Amber was actually the victim of an organised trolling campaign? What if the online hate against her was manufactured? Alexi Mostrous, the reporter who brought you Sweet Bobby and Hoaxed, investigates what happened to Amber and who might have been responsible.

Also on Tortoise Investigates, you'll find our other award-winning, chart-topping series: Sweet Bobby, Hoaxed, Pig Iron, Into the Dirt, Three Doors, Down and Dr Anti-Vax and Walter's War.
