Return to Jonestown
Sunday Night’s Melissa Doyle journeys into the remote jungles of South America, following the footsteps of the most dangerous cult leader of all time. His name was Jim Jones – a charismatic preacher responsible for what is now known as the ‘Jonestown Massacre’. It’s been 40 years since more than 900 men, women and children died after the deranged preacher ordered them to consume a deadly cyanide-laced drink. In what Mel describes as the most fascinating story she has ever told, she returns to Jonestown with two survivors who share a surprising story of courage and resilience.

Jamie speaks from the heart about the impact of the devastating business failure. But, as reporter Matt Doran discovers, Jamie has found comfort in doing what he loves, and does, best.
