on BBC Radio 4 FM

Return of the investigative series in which a document sheds new light on past events. 1: The Bone Harvest From the mid-1950s through to the early 1970s, tests were carried out around the world on the bones of dead babies to find out how much radiation they contained. But the bones were mostly taken without the knowledge of relatives. Mike Thomson traces a story of medical practice that pre-dates the events of Alder Hey Hospital by several decades.
