Martin Dillon: “There’s no evidence for the ‘Say Nothing’ ending” and Mairead Farrell was "addicted to romantic nationalism"

Journalist Martin Dillon disputes the ending of the ‘Say Nothing’ tv show depicting the murder of Jean McConville. In his new book ‘The Sorrow and the Loss: The Tragic Shadow Cast by the Troubles on the Lives of Women’, he writes about people like Caroline Moreland, shot as an informer just weeks before the IRA ceasefire – he believes Martin McGuinness must have known about it. Mairead Farrell killed by the SAS in Gibraltar despite being well-known to the security services also features in the book. 

Martin Dillon joins Ciarán Dunbar, to talk about his latest work.
