Series 5, Episode 9: Jimmy McGovern (part II)

Earlier on in this series of The Lonely Arts Club, we heard from writing legend, Jimmy McGovern. 

We had a brilliant chat with Jimmy, and naturally the conversation moved onto talking about the work that he's done with the families of those killed in the Hillsborough disaster. 

At the time of releasing part two of our interview with Jimmy, we're approaching the 34th anniversary of the tragedy in which 97 fans lost their lives. 

Jimmy speaks openly and honestly about his thoughts on what caused the disaster and how he came to be the writer of the BAFTA winning drama. 

You can catch up on the first part of the interview by going back to the beginning of this series.
