Bernie and Kathleen are at McDaniel's Pub, the last place Elizabeth was seen alive on August 28th, 1976.

It's only now, after all these years, that they feel able to come here to honour Elizabeth's memory in this place.

No matter how many years go by, it's never the same.

And she's still only 23 years of age in our minds.

Because we're mothers now, we feel responsible for her.

We never, ever wanted to mention the word British Bay.

We couldn't even say it.

I'm Ros Purcell from RTE Documentary on 1.

This is Stolen Sister.

Episode 2, Missing.

That weekend in British Bay, like, the place was buzzing with people from everywhere.

Nicky Crennan was a Garda stationed in Wicklow Garda Station.

It was around 10.30pm on Saturday the 28th of August 1976 when Elizabeth Plunkett had left McDaniel's Pub in British Bay and Nicky Crennan remembers that weekend.

McDaniel's Pub would be bustling at the seams.

The hotel, which is no longer any longer, Rockfield Hotel, was only half a mile away from it.

There was a dance there that night as well for the weekend.

There was a lot of people around, but I'm wondering, did Elizabeth go left or right?

Standing outside McDaniel's pub, Bernie and Kathleen are trying to understand what their sister might have been thinking when she was last seen alive.

Was she going to come back to Dublin?

Was she going to wait at the caravan?
