The story of a protest, told by Jancis Robinson. Fulbeck is a small, picturesque village, in the heart of some of the best farming land in Britain. It has a squire, a pub, champion bell ringers, a successful cricket team. In February of this year the Government proposed the World War II airfield at Fulbeck as a possible site for a nuclear waste dump. The news came like a thunderbolt. Over the next months the lives of the villagers were transformed.
