We can finally confirm that our new investigative podcast series produced by Mark Horgan and Ciaran Cassidy for Second Captains called Where is George Gibney? will be broadcast on BBC Sounds from August 27th. It will be the culmination of over 2 years work from the Second Captains team.

UPDATE: Trailer is out now, check it out here.

If you have any information, however minor, that you think could help the producers, please contact us confidentially at [email protected]

George Gibney was an internationally-renowned Olympic swimming coach. He was a charismatic celebrity in his native Ireland. He regularly appeared on television screens and across newspaper headlines. He was also charged with 27 counts of sexual abuse of young swimmers but never stood trial. Instead, he vanished.

Mark travels across continents – from Ireland and the UK to the US – speaking to the people Gibney tried to silence for decades, as well as those who tried to help him. The podcast asks how has he escaped justice for so many years? Does he still have access to children? Who is protecting him? Where Is George Gibney?

Please contact Mark at [email protected] if you have any information you would like to share. Once again, all information will be treated entirely confidentially.
