Episode 552: The Stardust disco - Four decades of injustice

The verdict of unlawful killing at an inquest into the deaths of 48 people in the Stardust disco brought to an end four decades of injustice.


It was a result that once seemed almost impossible to Neil Fetherstonhaugh when he sat down to write his book. 'They Never came Home' more than two decades ago.


NIall speaks to Sunday World reporter Neil about his book and his long association with the brave Stardust families who never stopped fighting.
