Six years after the Grenfell tragedy, survivors and witnesses tell their story from the night, and reveal the legacy left by the fire. Tiago Alves and Joe Delaney, who both escaped the building, are joined by our Crime Reporter John Dunne, and former Evening Standard photographer Jeremy Selwyn who both covered the Grenfell fire in 2017. 

Please note: This episode contains the stories of Grenfell survivors and some graphic details which some listeners may find distressing.

• Stories from the night retold 
• Why Jeremy no longer looks at the stark picture he took of the building
• How therapy has helped Tiago cope with the tragedy
• The moment Joe tried to declare a major incident
• How John could ‘still smell’ the smoke months afterwards
• How changing government ministers have scuppered attempts to affect change
