The Libyan had originally lodged an appeal against his conviction in 2007, but this was abandoned in 2009. In January 2021, his son lost an appeal against his late father's conviction.
In Lorraine's new documentary, named Return to Lockerbie, she speaks to local residents as well as speaking about her horrific memories. Residents didn't put up Christmas
decorations for ten years following the bombing. A brand-new limited series based on the 1988 Lockerbie disaster airs on Sky on 2 January, starring Colin Firth as Dr Jim Swire. The programme
synopsis reads: “On 21st December 1988, 259 passengers and crew were killed when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over Lockerbie 38 minutes after take-off, with a further 11 residents losing
their life as the plane came down over the quiet, Scottish town. "In the wake of the disaster and his daughter Flora’s death, Dr Jim Swire (Firth), is nominated spokesperson for the UK
victims’ families, who have united to demand truth and justice. "Travelling across continents and political divides, Jim embarks on a relentless journey that not only jeopardises his
stability, family and life, but completely overturns his trust in the justice system. As the truth shifts under Jim’s feet, his view of the world is left forever changed."
