About this listen

He was the self-professed chief suspect in the murder of Frenchwoman Sophie Toscan du Plantier and the subject of a fascinating film, Murder at the Cottage, which was directed by Jim Sheridan and produced by Donald MacIntyre before his death.

A larger than life, dramatic, and overwhelming character who courted the media and wore his role as a suspect like a badge of honour.

But what was Ian Bailey really like and did his mask fall once the cameras stopped rolling?

Nicola speaks to journalist and former colleague Donal MacIntyre, who spent countless hours in his company and who attended a private ceremony near his home in Schull where his ashes were spread.
