Who's Afraid of the Bomb?

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Twenty years ago the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament was at its height. The Aldermaston crowds massing in Trafalgar Square were the largest since VE Day. That autumn the Labour Party Annual Conference voted for unilateral disarmament.
Today Jonathan Dimblcby asks Who's Afraid of the Bomb? A BBC opinion poll confirms that many of us are ' worried ' or ' very worried ', yet few of us are doing anything about it - either by campaigning or even by seeking more information. Why?
Producers HUGH PURCELL and JOHN SMITHSON
