A series celebrating the role of engineering in modern society. Accidents Will Happen
Machines will always go wrong, so engineers must make them fail safely. This fail-safe approach to design is at the heart of all complex technology from a fuse box to a space shuttle. Can engineers predict every eventuality or will accidents always happen? Tonight's programme searches for the perfect answer - but finds that people can always fool machines. Director Paul Fabricius
A Uden production for BBCtv
