'This piece of à a greyish, pinkish, 10-inch lump à I looked at it closely and
then I realised it was a big piece of skin. I didnae really look at anything too
closely after that. There was a Bible lying beside it. The pages were fluttering."
It is 25 years since Pan Am flight 103 took off from Heathrow with a bomb in its
hold and blew up over the small Scottish market town of Lockerbie, killing all 259
people aboard and 11 on the ground. The Lockerbie Bombing marked the anniversary with interviews û testimony? û from the townspeople and some of the parents, widows and
children of the murdered passengers who have lived a quarter of a century without them.
"To this day we still cry," said the father of university student and athlete JP Flynn,
who had been travelling home to them for Christmas, while JP's mother nodded slightly, silently next to him. "A lot," he added after the briefest pause, and his wife agreed
silently again. There is footage û shown twice in the documentary, the first time in slow motion, I presume, because ITV's contractual terms demand at least one "WTF are you doing?" moment from its programme makers û of Jeannine Boulanger, mother of Nicole, who died
aboard the plane at the age of 21, collapsing at the airport, howling û there is no
other word for it û "My baby! My baby!" and writhing in agony as Nicole's father spreads himself across her, trying to protect her from the photographers who surround them.
Today she is a quiet, composed figure whose eyes fill only when she describes what she
sees as her failure to protect her child. As with 16 others, whose names are inscribed
on a stone in Lockerbie's cemetery marking the burial place of all unnamed parts that
were gathered during the investigation, none of Nicole's body was ever identified.
Inside, you suspect, her mother will howl for ever.
When daylight came, Helen Fraser picked some of her Christmas roses and put one by that
grey, pinkish lump and one by each of the others that lay in her front garden. "And said
a wee prayer. Kind of a pointless thing to do really, but I just felt I couldn't not do anything." Jeannine Boulanger said that she tried to concentrate on the goodness that surrounds us and on the beauty of life, "because I don't think my daughter would want
anything else." God willing, Nicole got a rose and a prayer.
Enjoy!
