BBC Film Crew Arrested in Donegal

Fox is saying that a BBC Film crew has been arrested by the Gards in Donegal, whilst filming a "dissident IRA" person who was reading and Easter statement.


Anyone know anything about this?

They've been released. Shades of Carrickmore in 1979.

Mmm - except this is south of the border, and even Thatcher didn't arrest the Panorama crew.
Thanks for the link.

You should watch the clip in the link. BBc were jumped on by Thatcher accused of providing IRA with propaganda platform after BBC camera crew travelled to the area after being informed of an IRA operation to take place. Film was never shown at the time
