Amid the carnage and the chaos, a mother of ten goes missing but a code of silence is in operation. Here's how to watch "Say Nothing" online and from anywhere with a VPN.
"Say Nothing" premieres in the U.S. and U.K. on Thursday, November 14.
• U.S. — Hulu (30-day FREE trial)
• U.K. — Disney Plus
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk-free
Based on the New York Times bestseller "Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland" but woven into something else entirely - a thriller with the jeopardy always real and still resonating down through the years.
On one level, the show is based around the stories of Gerry Adams (the former President of Sinn Fein), Jean McConville (the missing woman), IRA volunteer Dolours Price who was sent to jail for her role in the 1973 Old Bailey bombing, her sister Marian, and Brendan "The Dark" Hughes, a notorious high-level IRA commander.
On another, it has a powerful political message for today. The 1997 Good Friday Agreement paved the way for almost two decades of peace but the past has a way of demanding a second-hearing and some stories just refuse to go away. Gerry Adams denies any involvement in the IRA to this day.
