Freak weather conditions on 31 January 1953 led to a storm that cut a destructive swathe across the North Sea coastlines of Britain and the Netherlands. Over 2,000 people were killed and thousands left homeless in the worst national peacetime disaster of the 20th century. This documentary charts the course of events, uncovering poignant stories of heroism and suffering, and asks how this catastrophe came to be forgotten so quickly.
