Bloody Sunday: Scenes from the Saville Inquiry archiveOn Sunday 30 January 1972, 13 civil rights marchers were shot dead and another 13 wounded when British soldiers opened fire during an anti-internment civil rights march in Derry, Northern Ireland. The initial 1972 inquiry by Lord Chief Justice, Lord Widgery - branded the Widgery Whitewash by many - suggested that the soldiers had been fired on first. After a sustained campaign by the families of the victims and in the light of new material collected by the Irish Government, a new Inquiry was set up in 1998 as part of the Northern Ireland Peace Process. Since March 2000, the Saville Inquiry has heard evidence from over one thousand witnesses, but thanks to the brilliant compression of the editing, we are presented with a breathtaking, dramatic overview, moving swiftly from painful eyewitness accounts of how people died, to the cross examination of the soldiers who fired. Richard Norton-Taylor's achievement in taking this story into the public domain where it belongs is outstanding and of critical importance.
