How the army took over Poland
A Panorama special written by Andrew Carr

On the first anniversary of the imposition of martial law in Poland, Panorama uses the technique of documentary-reconstruction to trace the story of those first uncertain days - the build-up of tension throughout the country, a series of brutal attacks by riot police, the unrest in Katowice, heart of the Silesian mining region, and the arrests, the internments, the occupation of the mines and the brutal 'pacification' operation which was to smash Solidarity.
