BBC Documentaries - Thalidomide - The Fifty Year Fight

Seizoen: 2014 - Aflevering: 114 / 2482 - Eerst uitgezonden: 15 mei 2014 - Episode ID: 954032

In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Thalidomide was prescribed to women to combat morning sickness, but the drug led to children being born with deformed or missing limbs. More than 50 years on, this documentary hears from British people affected by it, their families and those intimately involved in the campaign to secure compensation from the manufacturer, revealing the long battle through the courts and how society has treated them through the years.
