ITV announces sequel to The Murder of Stephen Lawrence
The original drama, which first aired in 1999, dramatised the aftermath of Stephen Lawrence's murder.
In April 1993, 18-year-old Stephen Lawrence was killed in a racially motivated attack by a gang of youths in Eltham, south London.
When the initial investigation failed to convict those responsible for Stephen’s murder, his parents led an extraordinary campaign for justice, resulting in a public enquiry into the police investigation and led to sweeping changes to law enforcement and police practices in the UK.
