And then also it was, it became in my head more clearly a investigative, sorry, a long form series, 10 parts when I got Cass involved because I just knew how good Ciarán Cassidy was at at editing documentaries, like his ability to kind of tell stories has, you know, his radio documentaries and RT Radio 1 were phenomenal.
Mark HorganGUEST

They were world class, you know.
Mark HorganGUEST

And then Chalky mentioned Mark and the podcast a few times, and that's a reference to Mark Horgan, who, with Ciaran Cassidy and, and, and Evan Daly and others, um, brought this all back to public attention a few years ago with the BBC podcast, Where is George Gibney? And, and then these four women that Chalky thanked, they came forward.

It meant new charges could be brought, and it meant that George Gibney is going to spend much of what's left of his life, one would suspect, behind bars.

But when that overall sentence was, um, read out by the judge of 15 and a half years, they did seem very happy, and speaking afterwards said they did feel that they had gotten justice finally, um, when George Gibney was wheeled from the packed courtroom to begin his sentence in prison.
