Waste of time

Literally! Police, film makers, etc didn't do themselves any favours with this one.

One minute it's a "professional hit", the next minute/episode it's not.

Somebody said that crimpings on a casing are typical in Eastern Europe. How come? Who said that? Was he/she interviewed?

What about that "reliable" informant Mr James who apparently lied to get competition off the street. And it took them months (their words) to dismiss his info? Really?

There were three suspects at the very start of the investigation, and none tracked down.

Serbian connection was dismissed due to no info from "security services"? They said that twice. Did police actually do anything about that? Because it seems that it's the only case with some motive. Unless, of course...

Surely, the fiancé must've known that Jill was going to her home that morning to collect those faxes. Yet "they" say that only one person knew - the agent. Btw, both of them, and some other close ones, were dismissed at a stroke of a pen. At least in the film.

There is no insight into Jill Dando's private life apart from her own words that she is what you see, no skeletons, etc. Perhaps.. Yet somebody knew where she would be that morning, or gone to the great length to get to her.

Police were under a lot of pressure of course. Still, as incompetent as in any spoof detective movie. Years wasted.. don't waste your hours, nothing new to see there.
