File on 4
RADIO 4, 8.00PM
Last year, File on 4 investigated whether some Paralympian athletes are gaming the classification system in order to maximise their chances of winning medals. With a parliamentary select committee report into the matter due to be published, now File on 4 returns to the subject with further investigation and analysis of allegations that some athletes are faking symptoms to make themselves seem more disabled than they really are. A sensitive and thorough exploration of a delicate and complex issue by reporter Simon Cox.
