The Missing

16-year-old Damien is one of the UK’s highest profile missing persons. He vanished after a night out on the Isle of Wight. His Mum Valerie has campaigned for 24 years to try and find answers – amidst rumours of the involvement of a local drug dealer, and claims he was abducted. We re-visit this case and ask whether the islanders are still keeping a secret.
