4. The Holy Clay

A compelling five-part mystery based on the true story of one man’s search for justice on a remote Irish island, blending documentary and drama.

It seems Neville can’t stay away from the island that haunts his every waking moment.

A chance encounter on the ferry to Tory offers a new opportunity for justice and Neville finally finds a solicitor willing to listen to his story, but the strain of so many years spent searching for answers puts huge pressure on his marriage.
