BBC, Netflix unveil Lockerbie drama series ahead of release

News summary

The upcoming six-part series 'The Bombing of Pan Am 103' from the BBC and Netflix will delve into the investigation of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing that killed 270 people. Featuring a cast that includes Connor Swindells, Peter Mullan, and Merritt Wever, the series will explore the extensive search for evidence in Scotland and the subsequent trial at Camp Zeist in 2000, while also addressing the human impact on the victims' families and the Lockerbie community. This production follows another recent portrayal of the tragedy, 'Lockerbie: A Search for Truth,' starring Colin Firth, which received mixed reactions from victims' relatives. The series aims to highlight the stories of investigators, victims’ families, and the lasting changes in security protocols stemming from the disaster. Developed by World Productions, it includes contributions from individuals directly involved in the investigation, ensuring a comprehensive narrative. The series is set to premiere later this year on BBC iPlayer, BBC One, and Netflix globally.
