Driven by love and loss, Colin Firth wants ‘the truth’ in Lockerbie: A Search For Truth. Sky have released a powerful brand new trailer the five-part limited series, based on UK’s worst terrorist attack.

Lockerbie: A Search For Truth follows Dr. Jim Swire (Firth) questions his long-held beliefs and allegiances as he mounts a controversial, decades-long campaign for justice for his family, as well as the families of victims across the world. The series charts the devastating impact of the Lockerbie disaster on Jim and Jane Swire, and it’s victims.

I only live 83 miles from Lockerbie and remember 21st December 1988 when Pan Am Flight 103 reported in the news. Looks powerful drama and harrowing journey for the victims family looking for justice and closure.
