"Maybe the most important television programme ever networked in Britain" - The Daily Telegraph
"In the coolest, most measured terms, accompanied by exceptionally skilled special effects and filmed and edited with the utmost precision, Mick Jackson's programme builds a cumulative portrait of horror, whose impact might well prove more lasting than any fictionalised or dramatised version." - The Guardian
An examination of the effects of nuclear weapons. The programme looks at the physical effects of a single, medium-sized nuclear warhead on a large city. How effectively would various types of shelter protect us from these effects?
Clip taken from Q.E.D. - A Guide to Armageddon, originally broadcast on BBC One, 26 July, 1982.
