SHOCKING EVENTS

Murder in the Pacific, 9pm, BBC2

THIS eye-opening three-part series tells the story of the Rainbow Warrior, the Greenpeace flagship that, in 1985, was blown up and sunk in Auckland, New Zealand, with the loss of one life. It’s the story of both the campaigners and the Pacific islanders affected by nuclear testing whose plight they were bringing to the world’s attention, — making governments, including our own, very nervous indeed.
