7/7: The Inside Story – A Thursday in July • Episode 1

Conflicted: 7/7 The Inside Story is now live to all our dear
listeners! Episodes 1 & 2 are available from today, with the
following episodes of this 6 part series on the terror attacks
which changed the face of modern Britain coming every week... -- On
a regular Thursday in July 2005, the peaceful morning air was
shattered as four bombs ripped through the underground in central
London. 52 people were killed, over 700 others were injured. London
had never seen bombings of this magnitude before, never with this
coordination. In the first episode of this special series of
Conflicted, we hear from survivors, emergency workers and a former
Al Qaeda spy as we recount the heart-pounding and tumultuous events
of that fateful Thursday in July.  It sets up a series where
we will investigate the last two decades of terrorism and counter
terrorism in the UK. How did it develop? What were the motivations
behind? And why did terrorism, and the perceived threat of it,
change the way in which the UK thinks about its own citizens?
