A brand-new drama series based on the Lockerbie disaster of 1988 is coming to Sky. This limited global event series is based on the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 and the search for justice by Dr Jim Swire (Colin Firth) and his wife Jane (Catherine McCormack) , who tragically lost their beloved daughter, Flora, in the devastating event.
The gripping limited series, which takes place over three decades, shows how a father, driven by love and loss, risks everything in the wake of Lockerbie – one of the world’s worst terrorist attacks. Set amidst heightened international conflict and conspiracy, Dr. Jim Swire (Colin Firth) questions his long-held beliefs and allegiances as he mounts a controversial, decades-long campaign for truth and justice that takes him to the deserts of Libya where he met Colonel Muammar Gaddafi (Nabil Alraee) and to the Netherlands for the trial of convicted Libyan national, Abdelbaset al-Megrahi (Ardalan Esmaili). The series charts the devastating impact of Lockerbie on Jim and Jane Swire, their family, as well as the families of victims across the world.
The Sky Original series ‘’Lockerbie: A Search for Truth’’ will be released on January 16, exclusively on Sky Show
