Description

Journalists Mark D'Arcy and Paul Gosling investigate the Leicestershire children's home scandal of the 1980s and 1990s. They ask why it took so long to halt the sexual and physical abuse by Frank Beck and learn the lessons for protecting children. New for this edition: a new chapter on the involvement of the Labour MP Greville Janner.
