0:07:12 > 0:07:14- I know how Griff Lynch feels now.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16- No job satisfaction.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20- It's time for a Twitter question - for Osian Candelas.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- Coke or Pepsi?
0:07:22 > 0:07:23- Coke.

0:07:31 > 0:07:32- Bye, Osian. Give him a clap.- - Thanks, Gar.
0:07:33 > 0:07:34- Bye.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35- Ta-ra, mate.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- I forgot to ask him - to be in my band.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45- Osian?
0:07:46 > 0:07:47- No, he's gone.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- We're now in the exclusion zone.
0:08:00 > 0:08:05- Currently, we have reached - 0.12 microsieverts per hour.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- It doesn't mean - this area is safe and clean.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12- It just means that the concentration - of radium residuals in this area...
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- ..is not that high to make it - reliant on levels of radiation.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20- We've had to stop - at another checkpoint.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25- We're now within ten kilometres - of the nuclear reactor.
0:08:26 > 0:08:31- Maxim has gone in again - to register with the police.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- We've had to sign more documents.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- We're getting closer.
0:08:36 > 0:08:42- I can hear the car's Geiger counter - ticking more the closer we get.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Here, - it's a really contaminated area.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- ..according to the radiation set.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- Look, 0.23.
0:08:52 > 0:08:53- Now, let's go.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- This here.
0:09:02 > 0:09:03- MACHINE BEEPS
0:09:03 > 0:09:04- Wow!
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- Twenty times more here.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09- Almost twenty times more.
0:09:09 > 0:09:10- Why is that so much there?
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- Because the road was decontaminated.
0:09:14 > 0:09:19- If you just step back - to the road, it drops down.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21- It drops down.
0:09:23 > 0:09:24- Just a metre.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Five, six foot there, - it goes up twenty times more.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- PHONE RINGS
0:09:43 > 0:09:44- Hello?
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- # On the train to Afonwen
0:09:46 > 0:09:50- # I lost my head
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- # I gave my heart to her
0:09:58 > 0:09:59- Thanks, Bryn.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00- OK.
0:10:04 > 0:10:04- .

0:10:07 > 0:10:09- Subtitles- - Subtitles
0:10:13 > 0:10:18- Maxim has brought us into - the ten kilometre exclusion zone.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- We can see reactor number four - for the first time.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- That was the one which exploded.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29- We're directly in line of sight - of reactor number four now.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- It's still two point something...
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- ..comparable to the levels - you have in flight.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36- Now, look here.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39- Let's compare the reading here.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- It needs time to count.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48- Let's expect half a minute.
0:10:49 > 0:10:50- Let's put it here.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- Radiation level drops down.
0:10:53 > 0:10:58- This structure blocks radiation, - not completely, like under umbrella.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- Behind me, you can see - what they call the sarcophagus.
0:11:06 > 0:11:12- It's a shell that they will slide - over reactor number four...
0:11:12 > 0:11:15- ..because it still emits radiation.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19- Where are we going next?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- Where are we going next?- - Next, we're going to Pripyat.
0:11:22 > 0:11:23- It was home to 50,000 people.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27- It was home to 50,000 people.- - This was once the main road.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29- Look at it.
0:11:32 > 0:11:33- Welcome to Pripyat.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- We're surrounded - by lots of buildings.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- Houses and flats, hotels.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46- This was a supermarket.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- Restaurant, culture centre.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- Restaurant, culture centre.- - A school, and a hotel over there.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- This is one of the schools.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- There were five of them, - and this was number three.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- A thousand children - studied at this school.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07- This was the canteen.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11- There are a thousand gas masks - laying on the floor.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- They had nothing to do - with the reactor in Chernobyl.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- These were for the Cold War...
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- ..when the whole country...
0:12:21 > 0:12:25- ..feared an American nuclear strike.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29- This is one of the classrooms.
0:12:30 > 0:12:35- It's the best example I've seen - of how everyone at the school...
0:12:35 > 0:12:41- ..everyone in Pripyat and Chernobyl - had to leave their stuff and flee.
0:12:41 > 0:12:47- The children's workbooks - are still open on their desks...
0:12:47 > 0:12:52- ..with stuff they wrote - on the day they had to leave.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55- It sends a shiver down my spine.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03- My day in Chernobyl - and the exclusion zone is over.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05- We're on the way back to Kiev.
0:13:05 > 0:13:11- It has been a real eye-opener - around the exclusion zone today.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13- I've really learnt a lot...
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- ..about one of the major events - of the 20th century.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20- Certainly, the second half - of the 20th century.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- Thank you for taking me - around the exclusion zone.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25- It's not finished yet.
0:13:25 > 0:13:30- We need to go through a special gate - to be checked for contamination.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- When we are sure - that you are not contaminated...
0:13:34 > 0:13:36- ..then it is finished.
0:13:36 > 0:13:37- It's still not finished now.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- It's still not finished now.- - What if I am contaminated?
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- You have three options.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43- Option one - clean yourself.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44- Option one - clean yourself.- - Right.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48- Second option - leave contaminated - clothes, luggage or shoes.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51- Last option - - stay here in the zone...
0:13:51 > 0:13:55- ..with your contaminated clothes, - luggage or shoes.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- OK, let's just hope - I'm not contaminated.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01- Please follow me.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04- Same procedure - as on last checkpoint.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17- The same as on previous checkpoint.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19- The same as on previous checkpoint.- - Can I give that to you?
0:14:22 > 0:14:23- Just like that, yes?
0:14:26 > 0:14:27- Am I clear?
0:14:34 > 0:14:35- The Boy On The Bench
0:14:36 > 0:14:40- Do you know, I'd been working - in the Bay for two or three months.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46- Every time I left the office...
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- ..I saw this gorgeous bloke.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- I made sure I took my lunch hour - when he was sitting there.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- To top it all, do you know what?
0:14:56 > 0:15:01- He was an architect - and he drove an Audi TT.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03- In my mind, we were married...
0:15:03 > 0:15:07- ..with two kids, a chocolate - Labrador and a big house.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11- Every lunchtime, - I put my shades on...
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- ..and double the make-up...
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- ..then gave him the sexy eyes...
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- ..on the way to get - the Tesco 3 deal.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26- I don't know why I didn't have - the balls to just ask him.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- "Are you single?"
0:15:28 > 0:15:32- I checked him on the book - and there was no other woman near.
0:15:33 > 0:15:34- Three months later...
0:15:35 > 0:15:40- ..as I was walking casually - but dead sexily by...
0:15:41 > 0:15:43- ..I heard this voice.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- "How are you doing then? - I've seen you around quite a lot."
0:15:48 > 0:15:49- He talks!
0:15:49 > 0:15:51- Omigod, with me!
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- He asked me out for a coffee.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56- First date!
0:15:56 > 0:15:59- Go with it, I said to myself. - this is the one!
0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Saturday came, - and we had a coffee date.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06- Oh, the conversation flowed.
0:16:07 > 0:16:12- But I had had a double vodka - chewing gum before going out.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- Then we had a lingering kiss!
0:16:16 > 0:16:21- He asked me if I wanted - to go on a second date.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24- A second date on the same day!
0:16:24 > 0:16:30- I used a can of fake tan - and a ton of cocoa butter all over.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Oh, I was ready for him.
0:16:33 > 0:16:39- After some drinky-poos - and touchy-feely on the doorstep...
0:16:39 > 0:16:45- ..I'd reached the stage where I was - going to ask him back for a coffee.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49- I'd convinced myself - that this is the one...
0:16:49 > 0:16:53- ..and I thought, for once, - cross your bloody legs.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58- "Wanna come back to my place?" - "Hell, yeah!" I said, in my head.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01- What I really said - was, "Oh, yeah, OK then."
0:17:02 > 0:17:05- "But I don't promise you - nothing, right?"
0:17:05 > 0:17:09- Then it was a fumble in the taxi - all the way across the city.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12- We went in - and he went to the toilet...
0:17:12 > 0:17:17- ..so I found a bedroom - and stripped until I was starkers.
