This is the first time that I´ve watched this in english and its true that it made me weep tears of grief and tears of rage. The British judiciary system is said to be the best in the world.....

Except of course if You happen to be IRISH.

The Guilford four and the Birmingham six are the best known cases of vile injustice dealt out during the dark days of the "Troubles" but there are indeed more innocent victims of manipulated evidence whose voices will never be heard. thanks for the upload.

@welcometofunkytown The situation over there was inherited, and its terrible. As for justice, there is no justice where there is hate. Governments of this world are the ones who should be put on trail.

@faeembrugh Everyone in the North is entitled to Irish citizenship.

There's no such thing as a 'British' justice system. Scottish law has and will always be a seperate justice system from England. And it should be noted that Gerry Conlon and the others as citizens of Northern Ireland are also British...just keeping the facts straight.

I'm British and the Northern Ireland situation makes me ashamed to be so. Got huge respect for the people of Northern Ireland and the shit that we put you through. A lot of people dont agree with me over here but you lot are strong.

@shanefolan - yeah a "tiny minority", right. Cop yourself on, I remember these times, do you? This has been going on for hundreds of years. This film was set amid decades of rule of the tory/conservative/unionist party in Britain, who were notoriously hardlined against the Irish and Northern Ireland, and were by necessity voted in by majority. But no it wasn't "all Brits" and the conflict was never supposed to be about the general English civilian, though it inevitably spilled over into that.
