Digital Spy today (July 19) revealed a first look at upcoming BBC Three documentary Unsolved, exploring the case of the disappearance of a 16-year-old boy named Damien who went missing 20 years ago in the Isle of Wight.
Journalists Bronagh Munro and Alys Harte will investigate the case, hoping to answer some of the biggest questions looming over the disappearance.
Bronagh comments: "After almost 20 years, no-one has been able to crack the case of how a teenage boy simply disappeared on a small island.
"Closed doors, memory loss, half truths, deceit, denials. None of these would go away. But then again nor would we."
Alys adds: "We had to wade through almost 20 years of rumour, speculation and lies. Some stories have been retold so many times that they have become part of the mythology of the Isle of Wight. Deciphering fact from fiction was our greatest challenge."
Damian's mother Valerie Nettles also commented on the show, saying: "The last 20 years has been a struggle. We never felt Damien went off on his own for any reason. We have always felt something bad happened. Not knowing for sure has been the worst possible part.
"I threw everything I had and more at [the Unsolved team] to [sift] through. Now I am able to look at my son's case through new eyes and to see things from a new perspective."
