(Chernobyl: Inside the Meltdown: Season 1: Truth) Historie On April 26th, 1986, a safety test at unit number four of the Chernobyl power station triggered the worst nuclear accident in history. The massive explosion and resulting fire released more than 400 times more radiation into the atmosphere than the Hiroshima bomb. It was a global catastrophe – a radioactive cloud spread across Europe and eventually circled the world. This landmark series on the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster tells the full story from the meltdown to the KGB cover-up, right up to the present-day war in Ukraine, revealing how a nuclear exclusion zone became a war zone. With powerful interviews from survivors who have never spoken in public before, and unique insights into the Western and Soviet response, this series provides a new perspective on a story riddled with intrigue, deception and tragedy. Over a year after the accident, plant operators accused of causing the catastrophe face a Soviet show trial. Inside the power plant, nearly 200 tonnes of lethally radioactive nuclear fuel has gone missing. Scientists hunt for it deep inside the perilous reactor core. As the USSR collapses, an independent investigation searches for evidence of what happened the night of the meltdown, uncovering classified documents that reveal what really caused the explosion, and powerful evidence for a Soviet cover up. Chernobyl’s toxic legacy continues right up to the present-day war in Ukraine, when the nuclear exclusion zone turns into a war zone, and the power plant itself comes under attack, raising fears of another nuclear disaster. Episode four reveals how 40-years on, the Chernobyl catastrophe is more relevant than ever. MN 12 (United Kingdom)
