BBC’s 'Bombing Brighton’ gripping television

Last evening  BBC 2 Television screened Bombing Brighton: The Plot To Kill Thatcher.

The documentary included interviewing Patrick Magee, the bomber and Jo Berry, daughter of Sir Anthony Berry, who was killed in the bombing.

Jo and Patrick have met over 300 times since his release from prison.

It is gripping television and highly recommended. No doubt it will be shown again. Unfortunately BBC iPlayer is not available in Ireland.

It’s a powerful story in what happens when people can engage with each other. Some can manage it, others find if difficult and there are those who simply cannot.
