Without a doubt, Chernobyl has been the TV event of the year. The Sky Original drama takes us back in time to the moments leading up to the explosion at the nuclear power plant in 1986 and follows the fallout over the days, weeks, months and years as the disaster unfolds in meticulous and devastating detail.
The five-part series stars Jared Harris, Emily Watson, Stellan Skarsgård and Jessie Buckley (as well as Trevor from EastEnders and Finchy from The Office) and was directed by Jonas Renck. The production refuses to shy away from the horrors of the event, both the physical and mental scars of the victims and the attempts to cover up the truth by the authorities.
The programme quickly jumped to the top of IMDb’s all-time TV rankings and simply cannot be missed.
Chernobyl is now available to digitally download and keep. It will be released as a two-disc set on DVD from 15 July 2019 and on Blu-ray 29 July 2019.
