BBC Panorama: London Under Attack (the show that predicted 7/7)

Broadcast on May 16th 2004, this show features a fiction terrorist attack very similar to the real attack of 7/7 a year later. The show's panel of experts included Peter Power, the former anti-terrorism police officer who was running a training exercise on the day of 7/7.

Anyone remember a similar show to this where a civilian panel attempted to contain a terror attack ? Also from the BBC IIRC ?

@MrSven2609 Yes, the show was called Crisis Command, though I've been unable to find copies of any of the episodes.

Peter Power's company must have something to do with it.

@fmgaluda: I'll pass on the information to the families of those who were killed on 7/7, I'm sure they'll be very pleased to know it was all fictional and their loved ones are in fact alive and well.. and living with Elvis. !!

@77Archive i remember that i watched the flooding one where the guy would have been done for manslaughter if you find it please share the link

I think that there will be no more terrorist attack any more. They understood already that all they need to do is a lot of children and they will take over sooner or later. :)

I watched it the night it was broadcast. I lived in Whitechapel then and it freaked the crap out of me.

can you upload the original file to a hosting site?

The events of this programme are fictional, just like 7/7!
