It stars Connor Swindells, Patrick J. Adams, Merritt Wever and a supporting cast that includes Peter Mullan and Kevin McKidd, and aims to portray both the meticulous hunt for the perpetrators and the long‑term impact on survivors.

The series is highlighted in a weekly streaming roundup that also lists other new releases, but the focus remains on the retelling of the Lockerbie tragedy.
