A series of six documentaries which go behind the headlines to reflect the Northern Ireland conflict in the context of ordinary rural life.

The Nelsons are Protestants. Their farm is just inside Northern Ireland, a few hundred yards from the border with the Irish Republic. For the last 20 years of the Troubles, their lives have been quiet and rural. But then the paramilitaries came calling. It was traumatic. This is the story of one family trying to get over the experience.

Last in the series that uses archive material to explore the cultural impact of 20th-century science. A Is for Atom
The story of the rise and fall of nuclear power. Forty years ago, scientists and politicians came to believe they could create a different world, with a limitless source of energy.
From this grew extraordinary dreams for nuclear cars, rockets, planes - even the atomic peanut. But with these dreams came political and commercial pressures. Then came Three Mile Island and Chernobyl. Pandora's Box tells the dramatic stories behind the disasters. Why did a technology with the potential to change the world go so disastrously astray?
