New true crime show on Netflix is 'must-watch' series about tragic event
Netflix has released a gripping new true crime documentary, hailed as 'essential viewing' and available for a limited time only. The platform, renowned for its compelling documentaries, is kicking off the month with fresh additions to its library, including a series that's bound to have viewers glued to their screens.
The four-part series, Attack on London: Hunting the 7/7 Bombers, revisits the harrowing terror attacks on London's transport system two decades ago, featuring first-hand accounts and previously unseen footage. It delves into the tragic events of July 7, 2005, when four suicide bombers launched an attack on the capital's transport network, resulting in the deaths of 52 people and injuries to more than 770 others.
The British Transport Police (BTP) revealed at the time that three explosions occurred on the London Underground around 8.50am near Aldgate, Edgware Road, and Russell Square stations.
A fourth bomb detonated at 9.47am aboard a bus rerouted through Tavistock Square, close to the BTP's headquarters at the time.
Luke Eccleston, a movie and TV content creator, took to TikTok to recommend Attack on London: Hunting the 7/7 Bombers to his followers.
He urged: "Stop whatever you're doing because Netflix have just dropped a brand new four-part limited series, and trust me when I say that this is an essential viewing. It's a shocking documentary that everyone's got to see."
Luke shared insights into the intense Netflix documentary, detailing the harrowing terror attacks and subsequent investigation, featuring interviews with survivors and the prime minister at the time, Tony Blair.
The TV fan praised the streaming giant's work, saying: "Now, Netflix have done such a good job with this documentary, as it's such a great and serious documentary where it [doesn't just] delve into the actual original attacks, but [an incident] two weeks later [when] an innocent man was shot.
"It's genuinely heartbreaking to see what happened and how it genuinely shocked London so please make sure you get this on your watch list."
The tragic case of Jean Charles de Menezes - the 27-year-old misidentified as a terrorist involved in a failed attack later that month and fatally shot by police at Stockwell Underground station - is also covered in the documentary.
The perpetrators of the 7/7 bombings were eventually identified as Mohammad Sidique Khan, Shehzad Tanweer, Hasib Hussain, and Germaine Lindsay.
Luke's TikTok followers echoed his recommendation, with comments pouring in about the documentary.
One viewer commented: "Great doc, binged it all already." Another recommended it as a "must watch Netflix series."
A third shared: "Watched the first two parts and great watch so far. Awful seeing what happened."

I bought my daughter a dress but was horrified when I discovered what was written on the front – it's appalling
Social media users demanded answers and wanted to know which brand was behind the appalling dress. KID YOU NOT I bought my daughter a dress but was horrified when I discovered what was written on the front – it's appalling A MUM has urged parents to ''look at your kids' clothes carefully before you buy them'' after making a shocking discovery on her daughter's dress. Mum Savannah took to TikTok after she took a proper look at her tot's ''cute Easter'' frock and was appalled by the writing on it. 2 The mum decided to take a proper look at her tot's dress - and was horrified by the shocking writing Credit: tiktok/@savannah00112 2 Social media users demanded answers as to which brand was behind the appalling dress Credit: tiktok/@savannah00112 At first glance, the kids' piece doesn't look too unusual - it's an adorable dress with a bunny design, short sleeves, as well as some text on the bottom half. However, it's the latter that shocked Savannah to the core after one day she inspected the writing. ''It came with matching shorts, there's like bunnies, eggs and jelly beans and baby chicks,'' Savannah told her followers on the platform. ''One day, when she was napping, I just figured I would take a peak and see what it actually said.'' Although it is not known whether the little girl ever wore the dress in public, Savannah was horrified after realising what the shocking text said. One of the gruesome lines, for example, read: ''Want to have an Easter egg hunt under the covers?'' As she went on to reveal the following lines, social media users demanded answers as to which brand was behind the appalling dress. ''This coupon entitles you to one free peep show,'' gobsmacked Savannah read out. ''Let's pretend we're rabbits and do whatever comes naturally,'' the mum went on in the now-viral video. ''This one is kind of hard to read but something along the lines of, 'My tulips want to be on your tulips'. I was stunned when I saw a vile, sexual top in Zara's kids section and it just got worse when I turned it around ''And then the weirdest one - 'You've been the best husband and friend a girl could ever ask for'.'' Sharing the shock discovery on her page, Savannah urged in the caption: ''Read your kids clothes carefully.'' Uploaded just two days ago, the clip has racked up more than 20million views - with thousands slamming the brand behind the gruesome design. Keeping kids safe on YouTube RESTRICTED Mode is an optional setting on YouTube that helps filter out mature videos. It's not perfect, but it's a good way of scrubbing out a large portion of the adult material on YouTube.

On the iOS mobile site, tap the menu icon, which looks like a three-dot column. Tap Settings then tap Restricted Mode to turn it on or off. As over 20,000 TikTokers flooded to comments in sheer horror, one said: ''need to investigate the clothing maker coz who t* allowed that?'' Another agreed, writing: ''What company made that is the question.'' Someone else commented: ''everyone attacking her for not reading it, it's children's clothing. who would expect a babies dress to have those words on it?'' ''This was clearly intentional. The company needs to be investigated. I wonder how long have they been doing this,'' a viewer added. ''I hate this world with all my heart,'' a TikToker penned.
