📺 Now watching   

Yesterday, bestie and I started watching the Sky TV series "Lockerbie", https://m.imdb.com/title/tt31029686/.

As the name suggests (full name is "Lockerbie: a search for truth), it's based on the events that happened in December 1988, with the plane crash at Lockerbie. And it follows the story of a dad of one of the people that died, Dr. Jim Swire (portrayed by Colin Firth).

I had heard about the events, but as I was only 8 at the time, and the news was a lot different than how it is today, I didn't really know too much a out it. Just that there was a bomb on a plane and it crashed, killing almost 300 people.

I'm in episode 3 now, out of 5, and it's very interesting so far. Absolutely horrible, but also very interesting.

Some info from Wikipedia on the crash/events and the series:

If you are interested in things like this, and you have access to the series, it could be worth a watch.
