The murder of Jill Dando shocked the UK—this true crime podcast revisits the unsolved case that continues to baffle investigators.

In Part 1 of our gripping two-part series, we explore the 1999 killing of BBC Crimewatch presenter and national treasure, Jill Dando, who was shot outside her home in a crime that stunned the nation. Despite one of the largest homicide investigations in British history, the case remains unsolved.

Host and Sky News Crime Correspondant, Martin Brunt, the first journalist on the scene, recounts the moment he broke the tragic news to the public. He’s joined by Helen Fospero and Detective Chief Inspector Hamish Campbell of the original “Dando Squad,” to examine the earliest days of the investigation.

Why did police focus on Barry George as the prime suspect? What clues were missed? And why, decades later, does this case still leave so many questions unanswered?

This episode lays the foundation for a story of twists, controversy, and a justice system under the microscope. Stay tuned for Part 2, where we dig deeper into the theories, the fallout, and the search for the truth.
