Afternoon Play: Lockerbie on Trial

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Peter Goodchild's dramatised reconstruction of one of the most extraordinary trials in legal history. Few would have predicted the verdict when Megrahi was convicted and Fhimah acquitted of blowing up Pan Am flight 103. The prosecution were sure they had got their men, but a succession of cast-iron witnesses who proved to be CIA double agents, convicted terrorists and arms dealers with shady histories began to undermine a case which was skilfully and passionately contested by the defence. This is the story of the twists and turns of that epic contest.
