Lit.: anonym: Farewell. The Wire. In web BBC Radio 3, březen 2013 (článek). – Cit.: A radio adaptation of the stage play ‚Farewell‘ which premiered in Derry in December 2012. The play marked the reforming of Field Day Theatre Company and was directed by Stephen Rea.

John is left vanquished by his guilt of the past and is now ready to face up to the short time he has left. He wants his wife Ann to know the truth, he wants her forgiveness. Something Ann, as much as she loves him after thirty seven years of marriage, cannot do. This is a different man to the man she knew, he has killed a part of her now. She must go back to her life, to their children. She accepts that she will go, leaving John to face the unavoidable; it is only a matter of time before they find him and at last he will find the release he so yearns for.
