The Salisbury Poisonings: Trailer

Six years after a mum was poisoned by a Russian nerve agent in Wiltshire, will a public inquiry bring answers? In 2018, Dawn Sturgess came into contact with one of the most dangerous substances in the world: Novichok. She thought it was perfume. Four months earlier, a former Russian spy and his daughter had been found slumped on a park bench having been poisoned too. How could this happen and where does responsibility lie? As an inquiry begins into Dawn’s death, this podcast will follow the key moments with analysis, context, and exclusive interviews.
