About the episode:
What have the TV series Narcos, The Crown and Chernobyl in common? They are all based on a true story. In fact, historical events or persons have become a popular subject for TV shows. But how close to the reality are they? And how difficult is it to separate fiction from reality? We’ll take a closer look at HBO’s Chernobyl trying to answer these questions. On top of that, you might learn some new things about this catastrophe…some of which are not even mentioned in the TV series.
