In 1974 six Irishmen were arrested following two bomb attacks on pubs in Birmingham in which 21 people died. The men have always denied any connection with the bombings.

This investigative thriller is 100% factually accurate and gives a dramatic reconstruction of events following the bombing of two pubs and the subsequent investigation by World in Action researchers Ian McBride (Martin Shaw) and Chris Mullin (John Hurt) to prove that the 'Birmingham Six' were wrongly convicted.
