Panorama: Saffie’s Story

15 March 2022

As the fifth anniversary of the Manchester Arena Bombing approaches, BBC Panorama aired Saffie’s Story following the parents of Saffie Roussos, the youngest victim of the Manchester Arena Bombing, as they navigate the public inquiry into the attack.

Alongside a moving portrait of Saffie, the program covers the events on the evening of the bombing, the Public Inquiry, and Saffie’s parents’ pursuit of answers to their questions about the lead up and response to the tragedy.

You can watch the programme on the BBC iPlayer here (the programme contains scenes which viewers may find distressing).

Pete Weatherby QC and Anna Morris, of Garden Court North Chambers, act on behalf of Saffie’s parents, instructed by Nicola Brook of Broudie Jackson Canter solicitors.
