Inside Chernobyl
 Inside Chernobyl

If you're for nuclear power, it will save us from catastrophe. If you're against it, it is the catastrophe.

Either way, with fears of global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, it's certainly back on the international agenda. But there's one almighty barrier in the way of nuclear expansion. Chernobyl.

It's now 20 years since that disaster, the worst nuclear accident in history, but Chernobyl is still exhibit A in the case against nuclear power. And with good reason, as you'll see when Richard Carleton takes you into the very belly of the beast, into the heart of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor.
