Friday September 15, 2006 Excellent program on this disaster last night. It told the story interviewing people who survived the incident - many talking about it for the first time. The shocking engulfing of the local school by tons of waste from the local coal mine was well told. It then described the inquiry and how the village campaigned to have the other heaps of waste removed - although the government at the time had the village contribute 150,000 pounds to have this done. This amount was paid back by Tony Blair's government but as 150,000 no interest or any attempt to make the amount relate to its value today.
