It's supposed to be escape proof. The most secure prison in western Europe. The IRA is going to turn that on its head.

In the second of two omnibus programmes, Carlo Gebler navigates a path through the disturbing inside story of the mass escape from Northern Ireland's Maze Prison in 1983 - the biggest jailbreak ever to take place on British or Irish soil. As former IRA inmates reveal how they pull off a breakout that creates shockwaves at the heart of government - key prison officials explain why they're unable to stop them.
