Timeline gets rare cameras inside Sellafield, Britain's most secretive and controversial nuclear site, home to a legacy that includes the covered-up 1957 Windscale fire. I keep this on the serious shelf, because the secrecy around British nuclear history is real and consequential. A place this dangerous, this hidden, invites exactly the scrutiny it resists. Watch it, guided by physicist Jim Al-Khalili, for a sober look at the atomic secrets buried on a quiet English coast.

Lying on the remote north west coast of England is one of the most secret places in the country - Sellafield, the most controversial nuclear facility in Britain. Now, Sellafield are letting nuclear physicist Professor Jim Al-Khalili and the television cameras in to discover the real story. Inside, Jim encounters some of the most dangerous substances on earth, reveals the nature of radiation and even attempts to split the atom.
