The Diamond Heist (2025) — watch online on iFILM. UK documentary series directed by Jesse Vile, covering the November 2000 attempt to steal the Millennium Star from inside London's Millennium Dome.
A crew led by Lee Wenham and Ray Betson drove a JCB digger through the Dome's wall, targeting a De Beers display that held a diamond valued at roughly £200 million. Flying Squad detectives had been tipped off and were already waiting inside. The series reconstructs the operation through first-hand accounts from the gang members and the officers who watched them come through the wall.
What makes it compelling isn't the ambition of the plan but the reasoning — how a group of men convinced themselves it was solid, and why a diamond worth more than most banks could hold ended up exactly where it started. Jesse Vile lets everyone speak without commentary. Stream The Diamond Heist (2025) online on iFILM.
