Drama / Crime
A powerful fictional drama, made in the style of a documentary, which explores some of the possible scenarios in the event of an accident occurring in the nuclear reprocessing plant, Sellafield.
The immediate aftermath of the accident. Initially, the story is told in the style of unfolding news coverage as well as captured by a documentary crew: a mixture of news footage, studio footage, and camera phone footage from eye-witnesses. Thus, we get a sense of the immediate aftermath as it unfolds in the media as the average citizen would experience the crisis.
A year after the fictional Sellafield accident the focus is now on longer term economic, social and human repercussions. We revisit and get closer to some of the characters we met in Part One. Through these characters, as well as through 'official reactions' and commentary from economic, psychological and medical experts, we examine the economic and social impact of the disaster on Irish society over the course of the year.

This three-part political thriller follows the catastrophic chain of events leading up to World War I from the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand on 28 June 1914 to Britain's declaration of war on Germany 37 days later. This tense and gripping miniseries set among the corridors of power in Whitehall and Berlin tracks the unfolding crisis through the eyes of leading politicians and civil servants struggling to prevent the world's first global war. 37 Days unlocks the mystery of the war s origins, overturning assumptions about its inevitability, demonstrating that World War One was neither a chance happening nor was it a foregone conclusion.
