‘I Was the Only Witness to My Mother’s Brutal Murder’ | This Morning

It was one of the nation’s most infamous and horrifying crimes - the shocking and brutal murder of 23-year-old Rachel Nickell, which happened in broad daylight on Wimbledon Common back in 1992. Ahead of the release of The Witness, a new Netflix drama about the case, and a coinciding documentary which reveals never before seen footage, in an exclusive interview we're joined by Rachel's son Alex - who then, at just two-years-old, was the only witness to the crime - and Alex's father André, to pay tribute to Rachel and revisit the terrible police failings that meant the wrong man was arrested, leaving Rachel's killer free to kill again.  Broadcast on 03/06/2026 Subscribe to This Morning for more exclusive videos: http://bit.ly/1JM41yF FOLLOW US: https://www.facebook.com/ThisMorning https://www.instagram.com/thismorning https://www.tiktok.com/@thismorning MORE ABOUT THIS MORNING: Welcome to the official This Morning Channel!
