Victoria Derbyshire's Interviews of the Week - Hijack hero Bill Hagan

Victoria talks to the retired airline pilot who thwarted a hijack attempt mid-air, by wrestling a man and gouging out his eyes, while his co-pilot recovered their aircraft from a steep dive. The attempted hijacking happened on a British Airways London to Nairobi flight in December 2000. There were 398 passengers on board.
