'I would have stayed in that digger for ages after that just until I got the bodies out' Creeslough
A digger driver who didn’t stop until he had uncovered the last body from the debris of the Creeslough tragedy has spoken publicly for the first time.
"The only way that they are going to get the news of a loved one being taken out, is for me to get in.” “I wanted them out. I would have stayed in that digger for ages after that just until I got the bodies out. The documentary called 'Iniúchadh TG4 - An Craoslach' investigates how locals from the Donegal village came together in the immediate aftermath of the explosion to pick through the rubble of Lafferty’s garage to rescue their neighbours before the emergency services arrived on the scene.
The programme is the first of a new six-part monthly current affairs and investigative documentaries looking behind the headlines of major Irish news stories that will be broadcast by TG4 this year. The series is presented by award-winning Belfast-based investigative journalist Kevin Magee.
