ITV will air a two-part special exploring the tragic event
Five years after the harrowing attack, more details are beginning to arise about what really happened. As the ITV synopsis explains, the film seeks to "piece together the chilling timeline of that day" and provides in depth analysis about how it came to occur.
The synopsis continues: "In programme one, we showcase two worlds colliding, with a countdown of the hours leading up to the bombing and a story that begins nearly a quarter of a century earlier.
"We reach back more than two decades to when the bomber’s family first came to Manchester and interweave the childhood of Salman and Hashem Abedi and that of their victims, contrasting their respective upbringings.
"We also reveal how the public inquiry has found that numerous opportunities were missed to stop the bomber from carrying out his attack, both on the night itself, and before."
The second episode will air later in the week
What will episode two of ITV's Worlds Collide: The Manchester Bombing explore?
More detail about episode two is yet to be revealed, however, according to Radio Times, the second instalment in the programme looks closer at the minutes leading up to the bombing and the immediate aftermath of the attack.
The second and final episode also plays close attention to how the emergency services responded to the event and why a counter terrorism operation's failings meant the response from the emergency services was delayed.
