Manage episode 463535048 series 3611572
Who Killed Jill Dando? This is the haunting question we revisit in this week's episode of The Killing of Jill Dando, the first installment of a gripping two-part mini-series.
We delve back into the unsolved murder of BBC Crimewatch presenter and beloved British broadcasting icon, Jill Dando, who was tragically shot outside her home in 1999. Despite one of the largest homicide investigations in British history, the case remains a chilling enigma.
In this episode, we are joined by Detective Chief Inspector Hamish Campbell, a key figure in the Dando Squad, as Martin reflects on his role as the first journalist to arrive on the scene—and the harrowing moment he broke the devastating news to the nation. The investigation’s early days are examined in detail, with a close look at the suspects, including Barry George, the lead suspect. What led detectives to focus on him? Why does this case still elude resolution, even after decades?
Join Martin, Helen, and DCI Campbell as they uncover the unsettling truths behind this ongoing case—one that continues to haunt the nation to this day.
