Guy's Road to Chernobyl
Season 1 Episode 3 of 3
Guy Martin visits the site of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster in Ukraine to explore the record-breaking engineering solutions designed to make the area safe. After receiving specialist training about how to avoid contamination, he is allowed into the most radioactive place on earth, a restricted exclusion zone of 1,000 sq miles. He heads straight for the breached reactor, which is now entombed within a 36,000-ton shelter, and climbs to the top of the structure to carry out a radiation survey
Guy's Road to Chernobyl airs on U&Dave at 2:00 PM, Wednesday 6 November.
