Sep 06, 2019, 11:14 AM

A BBC Spotlight to be screened next week will show Martin McGuinness was personally involved in at least one car bombing. The rare footage, being shown for the first time, of an IRA car bomb being assembled was filmed in Londonderry in the early years of the Troubles.  
There are also claims from a former senior Army officer that Ian Paisley helped fund a loyalist terror campaign in the 1960s.
The revelations about the late First and Deputy First ministers will be aired next week in the first episode of an eight-part series  looking at the troubles.
