The Bombing of Pan Am 103: Full cast list and when it's on TV
The attack killed 270 people, which included all 243 passengers and 16 crew aboard the flight and 11 residents of Lockerbie.
The programme follows the joint investigation from US and Scottish authorities into who exactly could have planned and carried out the bombing.
As reported by the Radio Times, the synopsis reads: "The series follows the untold story of the Scots-US investigation into the attack and the devastating effect it had on the small town and the families who lost loved ones.
"From the initial exhaustive search for evidence on the ground in Scotland, via the US and Malta to the trial at Camp Zeist in 2000, the series leads up to the forthcoming new trial in the US."
For accuracy and sensitivity, families and friends of the victims were consulted by the production team during development of The Bombing of Pan Am 103.
The Bombing of Pan Am 103 becomes the second TV show released in 2025 to cover the incident, following Lockerbie: A Search for Truth, which starred Colin Firth.

Inside Iain Stirling's home that's worlds away from Love Island villa
Love Island's Laura Whitmore and Iain Stirling lead a relatively private life when it comes to their family, but they have shared some glimpses of their quirky London home Laura Whitmore and Iain Stirling have become one of the UK's most prominent and successful power couples in showbiz since their romance blossomed back in 2017. The Irish presenter Laura, 40, and her Scottish partner Iain, 37, have become household names across Ireland and the UK due to their joint hosting and narrating roles on the popular ITV2 dating show, Love Island. The couple tied the knot in 2020 after three years of dating, and a few short months later, they welcomed their first child together - a daughter named Stevie Rae. Despite both Laura and Iain, who is putting his knowledge to the test of The 1% Club for Soccer Aid, being well-known figures in the public eye, they maintain a relatively private life when it comes to their small family. However, former MTV presenter Laura has given fans and followers a sneak peek into their quirky North London home via social media, much to their delight. Always fashionable, Laura seems to have added several touches of her personal style to the décor of her North London home which she shares with husband Iain. Their stunning property exudes a bright and airy feel, with the stylish couple adding lots of unique designs, funky patterns, and vibrant colours to inject personality into their space. Laura and Iain previously gave a glimpse of their incredible back garden which features their very own pub. Named The Snug, the pub is equipped with a bar, shelves filled with alcohol and glasses, a couple of bar stools and Guinness on tap. The couple have also set up a delightful outdoor seating area on their decking, perfect for those idyllic summer days or when playing host to friends. Back in 2020, Laura gave her followers a sneak peek into their personal pub on Instagram, sharing: "Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came... The Snug EST 2020." During the lockdown, fans got a glimpse of the interior of their main house as Laura and Iain snuggled on their comfy sofa while featuring on Celebrity Gogglebox, giving viewers a peek at their life off-screen. Their opulent L-shaped sofa is ideal for relaxing evenings, complemented by eclectic wall art and a rug that adds a chic bohemian touch to the room. The dining area in Laura and Iain's home exudes a casual yet inviting atmosphere, with trendy low-hanging lights providing a contemporary edge. At the heart of their dining space stands an elegant wooden table, while a charming portrait of Laura's dog Mick adorns the wall, adding a personal touch. Leading from this area is a spacious open-plan kitchen, boasting pristine white cupboards, vintage-inspired tiles, and cheerful sunflowers by the sink, creating a homely vibe. The beloved pair first offered a glimpse inside their new home in 2019, with Iain capturing a moment of Laura across the table as they enjoyed their first meal of fish and chips in their new digs, fondly referred to as "The First Supper."

Each player gets one pass which they can use to help them skip a question but once they have used it, an incorrect answer takes them out of the game. If they make it to the 1% question, they will be asked to go down to the stage for the final question where they'll see if they are winners. Who will be on The 1% Club for Soccer Aid? While a full lineup hasn't been revealed by ITV, some promotions for the show have seen a few famous faces preparing for their stint.
