Heists, Scams & Lies, S1: The Hunt for Tamara Ecclestone's Diamonds
This high-stakes investigative series follows George Odling and Andy Jehring's years-long global hunt to uncover the masterminds behind Britain’s biggest domestic burglary–and their hunt for Tamara Ecclestone's £25 million in stolen diamonds.
Description
In December 2019, international jewel thieves ransacked the home of Tamara Ecclestone and stole £2million worth of loot in the biggest burglary in British history. The thieves took every piece of jewellery Ecclestone owned, snatched her husband’s watches and desecrated their £75million mansion on Kensington’s Billionaire’s Row.
Who were the thieves? How did they do it? In this episode, reporters George Odling and Andy Jering hear from Tamara Ecclestone’s husband, Jay Rutland, and Detective Constable Andrew Payne of the Met Police’s elite Flying Squad – one of the first officers assigned to the case – as they begin their own hunt for Tamara Ecclestone’s missing diamonds.
