Attack on London: Hunting The 7/7 Bombers OTT Release Date - When and where to watch this chilling documentary
Attack on London: Hunting The 7/7 Bombers OTT Release Date - Netflix is dropping this powerful documentary on 1st July 2025, and it's not your average true-crime story. This digs deep into one of the most horrifying days in modern British history. It's chilling, emotional, and straight to the point. Here's what it's all about, the real incident that inspired it and why it matters. The real-life tragedy: What happened on 7/7? On the morning of July 7, 2005, London woke up like any other day. People boarded buses and packed onto the Underground trains, heading to work, school, or home. But by 8:50 AM, everything changed. Four young British men, radicalised and armed with homemade bombs, carried out coordinated suicide attacks on three tube trains and a double-decker bus. Three blasts hit trains near Aldgate, Edgware Road, and Russell Square. An hour later, the fourth bomb exploded on a bus at Tavistock Square. The result? 52 innocent lives lost and over 700 people injured. It was the UK's first-ever suicide bombing. The attack shocked the world, not just because of the death toll, but because the attackers were British citizens. The city came to a halt. Emergency services raced to the scenes. Families searched desperately for loved ones. And the country was left asking: Who were these men, and how did this happen on our soil? What does the documentary cover? Titled 7/7: Hunting The London Bombers, this four-part docuseries follows the urgent investigation that took place in the days and weeks after the attack. Each episode takes you deeper: Episode 1 covers the chaos of the morning and how people first reacted to what they thought were 'power surges.' Episode 2 reveals how investigators identified the bombers using CCTV and forensic evidence. Episode 3 digs into the failed follow-up attack on July 21 and how close the UK came to another disaster. Episode 4 ties it all together with survivor stories, political responses, and how the investigation changed counterterrorism forever. Who's behind it? The documentary is made by the same folks who brought us '9/11: Inside the President's War Room.' Directors Adam Wishart and Jim Nally, along with producer Neil Grant, are leading the charge. It's built on real voices, from survivors, forensic experts, counterterrorism detectives, law enforcement, and intelligence officers. Some of the key people featured include: Martine Wright, who lost both legs in the Aldgate blast and rebuilt her life after. Tony Blair, UK Prime Minister at the time, on what it was like leading the country through a nightmare. Eliza Manningham-Buller, former MI5 chief, who reveals how the intelligence services responded. Bill Mann, an everyday commuter who found himself caught in the chaos. Excited to watch 7/7: Hunting The London Bombers? Drop your thoughts @indiatimes.

Gary Oldman recalls apologising to Demi Moore for drunken behaviour on the set of 1995 film Scarlet Letter
English actor Gary Oldman, renowned for his portrayals of complex characters including Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour and Jackson Lamb in Slow Horses, has opened up about his past struggles with alcohol, revealing how it impacted his professionalism on the set of the 1995 film The Scarlet Letter, where he starred opposite Demi Moore. The Oscar-winning actor, played Arthur Dimmesdale in the romantic drama, which featured Demi in the lead role. Reflecting on that period in an interview with Radio Times, Gary admitted he was battling intermittent bouts of drinking during the production. 'I think the worst thing you can do is inspire disappointment. I was in The Scarlet Letter with Demi Moore, and I had intermittent bouts of boozing during filming. It was towards the end of [my drinking] where I thought, 'If I carry on like this…'' he said. Describing one particular incident on set, the 67-year-old actor recalled, 'I was in a very dark place. I drank too much in the lunch hour. It was such a destructive thing. I got back on the set to do quite a big scene and I got through it. You wouldn't really know but I was quite tipsy. And the next day, I said to her, 'I'm so sorry, you must hate me.' I was mortified that I'd been so unprofessional. And she said to me, 'I don't hate you. It's OK. I'm just disappointed'.' Gary's battle with alcohol addiction was not new at the time. He had been arrested for drunk driving in 1991 and voluntarily entered rehab in 1994. Over the years, he has candidly discussed the extent of his addiction, once admitting to "sweating vodka" and drinking so heavily that his tongue turned black. He has now been sober for 27 years and has often credited Alcoholics Anonymous with helping him turn his life around. Recently, Gary also shared warm words for his former co-star Demi Moore, who has made a major comeback with her performance in the critically acclaimed horror film The Substance. Speaking to The Post earlier this year, he said, 'I've not really been in touch with her, but I just reconnected with her because I saw her recently. She is such a wonderful person, Demi. She really is very special. I couldn't be happier for her in this moment with this film and this role. I think it's such a wonderful thing. And she's loving it and really riding the wave.'
