Link doesn't seem to work

Thanks, I'll catch it later on Iplayer. There was also a BBC Storyville doc on the same subject from 2019. An excellent, vital, piece of investigative TV.

It's not on iplayer at the moment but Storyville's are often repeated on BBC 4.

No, the Storyville one is a hard hitting documentary whilst 'Dark Waters' is a film (a very good one).
