Rising Concern
Few people in the south east realise the risks they face from flooding. The Thames Barrier will hopefully keep the North Sea at bay - but it is water from the Thames itself that is worrying experts. They say that it is only a matter of time before a flood similar to that of 1947 strikes the region again, and when it does the consequences will be far worse because of vast housing development since the last war. Penny Bustin reveals controversial plans for flood alleviation in the Thames Valley and talks to people who have witnessed the horrors of flooding at first hand.
