A Great British Injustice: The Maguire Story

Documentary recalling the miscarriage of justice meted out to the Maguires, who were wrongly convicted and imprisoned for making the bombs used in the Guildford pub bombings.

The story of the Maguires, an ordinary Northern Irish family living in London during the 1970s, wrongly convicted and imprisoned for making the bombs used in the Guildford pub bombings.
