The Murder of Jill Dando

Especially as you would be worrying if someone was going to soon try and murder you/someone else you know for the same reason.

Fair enough

I hope they play an appropriate BBC1 ident before tonight's Murder of Jill Dando.

Not Sausage Dog Walkers, or Bog Snorkelers, for example.

They may show one of the idents which are basically just the BBC One logo over a red background with no audio, which have been used recently for things like the World War One coverage.

Night Kayakers on network. Could have been much worse.

Anyone else think the CA volume was too low?

Yes I thought that the ECP announcement got lost against the Holby theme

I hadn't realised that back in the day Jill was one of that select band of regional presenters who could work the self-op desk

The newsflash is here.

When BBC presenter, Jill Dando was murdered on her doorstep in 1999, it was her colleague, Jennie Bond, who had to deliver the devastating news to the nation.#TheMurderOfJillDando pic.twitter.com/joUp9Y21jf

Fascinating but sad documentary. I was 12 at the time she was shot, but remember the coverage. Feels like yesterday.

As I was only 7 at the time of her murder i don't even remember seeing her on TV at the time, but through seeing clips of her online, reading about her and watching the documentary tonight, I still find it a very sad loss.

You guys are making me feel old, I was 20 when Jill was murdered and remember the BBC bulletins that evening.

Jill was certainly one of the few presenters who recognised her own celebrity, but didn't show any form of ego on-air (and appears off air too), this despite being offered a lot of gigs.

As mentioned in the doc, where they showed Jill being interviewed by Ross King, she was one of the few presenters who you didn't mind being on more shows, thanks to her personal, but authoritative delivery.
