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.
