Bombing Brighton: The Plot to Kill Thatcher

Discover how the IRA came astonishingly close to killing the Iron Lady and wiping out the British cabinet – the most daring conspiracy against the Crown since Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. The film includes an interview with Patrick Magee, who received eight life sentences for his role in planting the Brighton bomb, alongside testimony of some whose lives were profoundly affected.
