The Fall: Skydive Murder Plot tells a twisted tale that begins when Cilliers’ parachute fails to open on that fateful day. Jumping from 3000ft, both her main and reserve parachutes failed, sending her smashing into the ground. Despite extensive injuries, Victoria survived, and it quickly became clear to DC Maddy Hennah and DI Paul Franklin that what had happened was no accident. 

The detective's investigation pointed them towards Emile Cilliers, a British Army instructor, and as they dug deeper they found the man embroiled in a sordid web of enormous debt, affairs, sex clubs and escorts. The evidence gathered painted a grim picture of Emile – a sociopathic narcissist and a groomer who exploited even those closest to him. 

But despite the evidence, there was no clear connection between Victoria’s murder and her husband and to make things worse, Emile even managed to coerce his wife into siding with him in court. 

Channel 4’s innovative retelling of this gripping story blends documentary and drama, with MyAnna Burning recreating scenes of Victoria that blur fact and fiction. 

This genre-bending docu-drama looks to be a must-see for true crime fans, so keep reading as we explain how to watch The Fall: Skydive Murder Plot from absolutely anywhere and for free in the UK.

Alisa Pomeroy, (Head of Documentaries): "This is a spell-binding story that captured and shocked the nation. This series will attempt to address some important and thought-provoking questions that arose from this remarkable case. The mix of true-crime and drama-documentary and exclusive access to the investigating officers, will shed light on the complexities of abusive and coercive relationships and will no doubt educate and enthral our viewers."

Adam Hopkins (Executive Producer, Story Films): "Having survived such an audacious attempt on her life, Victoria had to confront the painful reality that her entire relationship had been based on lies.
