TRAILER WITH CONNOR SWINDELLS FOR BBC AND NETFLIX LOCKERBIE AIRPLANE EXPLOSION TV SERIES THE BOMBING OF PAN AM 103

 CONNOR SWINDELLS TRAILER 

FOR THE BOMBING OF PAN AM 103 SERIES

Although the Colin Firth series Lockerbie: A Search for Truth already aired without much success, I previously already told you that there is another series on the same terrorist attack coming up and today I have for you first trailer from THE BOMBING OF PAN AM 103 series with  Connor Swindells who leads the cast in the story based on the real events surrounding the 1988 Lockerbie bombing and the joint Scots-U.S. investigation which sought to bring the perpetrators to justice. Peter Mullan, Tony Curran, Eddie Marsan, Kevin McKidd also star in thebrand new series that will first air on BBC Sundays and Mondays from May 18th and then stream on Netflix globally on a later date!

WHAT IS THE STORY ABOUT? 

On 21 December 1988, flight Pan Am 103 was en route from Heathrow to JFK when a bomb exploded in its hold over the small Scottish town of Lockerbie, killing 270 people, including 43 British citizens and 190 Americans. It was the worst ever terror attack on British soil. LOCKERBIE will focus on the investigation into the crash on both sides of the Atlantic and the devastating effect it had on the small town and the families who lost loved ones. From the initial exhaustive search for evidence on the ground in Scotland, via the U.S. and Malta to the trial at Camp Zeist in 2000, the drama takes us right up to the most recent indictment at the end of 2022.
