Manx resident re-tells story of 1990 riot
The former governor of Strangeways Prison – and spokesperson of Manx passenger watchdog Travelwatch– will appear on TV screens tonight.
Brendan O'Friel is starring in the Channel 5 documentary Strangeways Riot: 25 Days of Mayhem at 9pm.
A team from the channel visited the Island in October in order to interview him as part of the re-telling of the story of the UK's worst prison riot.
Mr O'Friel said during his time in charge of the jail he did his best to improve things:
'Essential' that school staff recognise the signs of an allergic reaction
'High' risk of wildfires over the next week
'Come From Away' to continue after cast member injured during rehearsal
'Parks in worse state then when I started' says Peel commissioner
