Fergie Chambers, once heir to one of the biggest family fortunes in America, moved to Ireland after leaving the US where he was involved in funding pro-Palestinian causes. But he was arrested while on holidays in Ibiza over the summer, and now faces up to 30 years in prison, according to his wife, accused of funding Hamas to the tune of $7.5 million. At the centre of his story is his ownership of the Tunisian football club, Club Africain. Irish filmmaker Sinéad O'Shea has made a documentary about Fergie Chambers, and she joins Ger to tell this remarkable tale.
