Summary
On 26th April 1999, BBC Crimewatch presenter Jill Dando was shot dead on her doorstep with a single bullet. Twenty years on, her shocking murder remains unsolved — and continues to haunt Britain.
Who killed Jill Dando? Was it a professional hit, a stalker, or a case of mistaken identity? Despite one of the biggest police investigations in UK history, no one has ever been brought to justice.
In this episode, Geoffrey Wansell takes you through everything we know about the case, the theories, and why the nation is still desperate for answers.
