Yes, very sad and little talked about. There's a monument to those who perished in Portrane.

Don't shoot me down.
It is not available on BBC 2 though was first broadcast 30th July 2015.

I found somewhere you can watch it online, but I cannot be responsible for anything from it

You can easily search for it yourself.

Note.
I did not force you to click on the link!
