As well as the investigation in Gibraltar and Spain , '' This Week '' conducted some of the filming for " Death on the Rock " in Northern Ireland . Its journalists filmed the funeral of McCann , Savage , and Farrell ; while there , Manyon took the opportunity to interview Gerry Adams , leader of Sinn Féin , who refused to confirm that the three were planning a bomb attack on Gibraltar . The team decided against using Adams ' interview , and only 45 seconds of the footage was used in the final cut . The journalists were keen to show the potential impact of a bomb like the one the IRA had planned to explode in Gibraltar ; they initially hoped to film a controlled explosion of a bomb of similar size , but no private contractor would conduct such an experiment without government approval . In lieu of filming an explosion , '' This Week '' interviewed Noreen Hill — whose husband was left in a coma as a result of a smaller bombing in Enniskillen in November 1987 — to " depict the human tragedy of IRA bombings " . They also filmed an interview with a second survivor of the Enniskillen bombing , which was not included in the final cut
