    RTE did a surprisingly good dramatisation of the whole thing a few years ago but I can't find it anywhere on the internet... does anyone know if it's set to be on any time soon? or is it available to buy I wonder?
    Here's a clip from it


    Wow, I would consider myself pretty thick-skinned but that was really upsetting. I don't think I would want to see the whole film :(

    I remember this tragedy and the whole horror of the night so well .

    The doors being locked by steel bars and every other possible avenue of escape blocked ,with the owner or nobody being brought to account, is the one thing that always stuck in my mind .

    RIP

    One must wonder if we'd be waiting 30 years and counting for somebody to be brought to justice for this were it to have happened on the other side of the Liffey.

    RIP the 48.

    I remember a few years back the campaign for a full public inquiry gathering momentum, around the time of the RTE documentary.
    The main thrust was to expose the failings of the authorities in checking the venue re: barring of doors & windows plus the slow response of the emergency services.
    It lost ground as people saw it it as a money grabbing exercise on the part of the families to make the state liable.
