Audio slideshow: Remembering Lockerbie

The quiet Scottish town of Lockerbie was brought suddenly and shockingly to the world's attention on a wintry evening 20 years ago.

The bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 - more than 30,000 ft above the town - caused the deaths of 259 passengers and crew. Eleven people on the ground were also killed, as sections of the airliner crashed down.

Here - with the help of archive material - four people who were in Lockerbie on 21 December 1988 recall what happened.
