Dear Sarah (film)

Dear Sarah is a 1990 Irish made-for-television film about Giuseppe Conlon who was wrongfully sentenced to twelve years imprisonment after being implicated as one of the Maguire Seven during the 1970s.

The film was produced by Raidió Teilifís Éireann, directed by Frank Cvitanovich and written by Tom McGurk.

It starred Stella McCusker, Barry McGovern and Paddy Rocks, and was aired in 1990 by RTÉ in Ireland and on the ITV Network in the United Kingdom.

The film is based on the letters Giuseppe Conlon wrote from prison to his wife Sarah after he was wrongfully convicted in 1976 along with seven members of the Maguire family of running an IRA bomb factory in North London.

Sarah Conlon spent many years campaigning to clear the names of her husband, and son Gerry (who had been wrongly jailed over the 1974 Guildford pub bombings).
