BBC Radio 4 - Limelight, The House That Vanished, 2. The Real King of Tory

Frustrated by the wall of silence on Tory, Neville takes his search to the Irish mainland.

Frustrated by the islanders’ silence, Neville takes his search to the Irish mainland with his suspicions. Starring Tony Flynn.

Neville sets off on a journey around Ireland in search of clues, but the shock of discovering his house has vanished begins to affect his health. 

Feeling like he’s trapped in a nightmare, Neville recalls the peace and tranquility he first found on Tory – and a film he made years before seems to offer a strange prophecy about what may have happened to his house.

A compelling five-part mystery based on the true story of one man’s search for justice on a remote Irish island, blending documentary and drama.
