Next Episode of The Bombing of Pan Am 103 is
not planed. TV Show was canceled.
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 and the first major one on US citizens.The Bombing of Pan Am 103 focuses 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 US 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.
Evidence is discovered amid the wreckage that could represent a potential breakthrough. It suggests that the Lockerbie bomb bears the accidental signature of a known terrorist organisation. This could change the course of the entire investigation. Representatives of the Scottish police head to Washington to collaborate with their FBI colleagues and share vital new evidence. Progress looks promising, but the CIA appears to be withholding crucial intelligence on a possible bombmaker.
Scottish police hit on a promising new lead. With new evidence and forensic breakthroughs, investigators start to piece together an image of how the bomb could have slipped through airport security and entered the system. The Frankfurt luggage list combined with bomb-damaged clothing leads Scottish CID to a small, family-run clothes shop on the Mediterranean island of Malta. Could this have been the origin of the Lockerbie bomb?
The ongoing joint Scottish and FBI investigation closes in on the identity of the ‘mystery shopper'. Together, the teams work to uncover the co-conspirators behind the Lockerbie bomb plot. Vital progress is threatened by troubled relations between international agencies. A secret CIA asset could hold the key to revealing the identities of those responsible for the bombing of Pan Am 103.
Over a decade after the Lockerbie bombing, following much debate and international negotiation, the accused finally stand trial. The venue is a purpose-built Scottish court in the Netherlands. Bereaved relatives around the world campaign for access to the trial. Scottish police and the FBI continue to work tirelessly to secure vital witness testimony and deliver meticulously collected forensic evidence. Will the investigators finally secure justice for the victims and their families?
