Extremists of any background are a danger to the country, not just our own, but around the world, if you have to even raise more than your voice in defence of your political position then you have lost the argument, you have lost the right to be seen as civilised and part of the system.

It can never be too much of a coincidence that in times of deep disharmony, of scaremongering and deep fear biting at the ankles of those immersed in watching world events, that a television drama, even of the murder/crime genre, can take you back to the roots of the nuclear power debate and show just how close such thinking can wreck the environment and kill thousands of people if there was an accident or act of sabotage.
