Who really killed Jill Dando?


In this gripping conclusion to our two-part true crime series, Sky News Crime Correspondent Martin Brunt, journalist Helen Fospero, and Detective Chief Inspector Hamish Campbell revisit the most controversial and puzzling elements of the case.


This episode takes a deep dive into Barry George—the man once convicted of Jill Dando’s murder, only to be acquitted years later. We re-examine the flawed evidence, the intense media scrutiny, and the legal battle that led to his release. But did the justice system get it right? Or did the real killer slip through the cracks?


Beyond George, we explore alternate theories that continue to capture public imagination:

  • Was Jill Dando the target of a professional hit?
  • Could this have been a case of mistaken identity?
  • Or was it a personal grudge with deadly consequences?

With fresh insight from those closest to the investigation, we unravel the contradictions, cover the lasting impact, and ask the hard questions that still remain unanswered over two decades later.

This is not just a cold case—it's a national obsession. Subscribe now and be part of the conversation.
