An Indiscretion in the Life of an Heiress (5) by Thomas Hardy
The second of six programmes. With the help of news reports, eye-witness accounts and other archive material, Robert Kee reflects on the disaster which struck the village of Aberfan. In 1966 two million tons of coal dust crashed down a mountain side, suffocating 116 children and 28 adults in the buildings below.
Since then Bradford, Lockerbie and other communities have also been struck by disaster. Lord Cledwyn of Penrhos and Professor Rachel Rosser ask how modem psychiatry has learned to cope with major crises. Producer Sue Davies
