9pm, Sky Documentaries“I’m on a British Airways passenger flight, where’s the champagne? Then there’s this moment when you think: ‘Fuck, they’re bombing the aeroplane.’” That’s the account of one of the survivors of the hostages captured by Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein’s forces when a civilian flight landed in Kuwait in 1990. This startling documentary hears such testimonies as the survivors prepare to take the British government and BA to court to seek “justice and the truth”. Hollie Richardson
