Major issues, changing attitudes, important events at home and abroad. In the first programme of the new series, Julian O'Halloran examines the reasons for the rising number of E Coli cases. The Scottish food poisoning scare, which has cost 16 lives and made hundreds ill, is close to being the world's worst outbreak of its kind.
