On December 21st 1988 Pan Am Flight 103 was blown up over Lockerbie.

In total 259 people aboard the flight and 11 on the ground died in the crash which took place 38 minutes after take-off.

The debris from the aircraft was scattered across 845 square miles and the impact reached 1.6 on the Richter scale.

There isn’t a lot I can ad to this tragedy, I vividly remember watching the news that night 29 years ago, the fires that were caused by the crash lighting up the TV screen. The sight of the cockpit and police officers carrying bodies away the next day………

My thoughts are with all those still affected by the atrocity.

Colin Firth's last few roles have been of a man in his 60s.

Since he is, in truth, in his 60s, I assumed this was fairly close to how he looks now.

So imagine my surprise when I went to watch interviews about Lockerbie and

are you kidding me sir

are you ever going to look your age

A horrible fact I wish I didn’t knew is how the remains of Pan Am flight 103, a Boeing 747 destroyed in a terrorist attack over the skies of Lockerbie, Scotland, on the 21 of December 1988, the worst terrorist attack in British history, lay abandoned in a scrapyard next to a go-kart racetrack, because apparently it’s still considered an ongoing investigation, so they cannot be destroyed.
