How to watch The British Blood Scandal: Poisoned at School online or on TV

A must-watch new documentary airing on TV and online is The British Blood Scandal: Poisoned at School, which has its first broadcast date on Tuesday, May 20.

This feature documentary, from a production company that has also worked on Dispatches and Panorama episodes, is about a scandal from the 1970s and 80s which is also being turned into a drama by the Mr. Bates team.

The doc is about the infected blood scandal of the 70s and 80s, in which tens of thousands of people were infected with Hepatitis C and HIV due to being given infected blood by the NHS.

In particular it's about the Lord Mayor Treloar School, a specialist school which took in haemophiliacs with what seemed like a miracle cure for their condition although that's not what they got.

We learn about the scandal as well as the survivors of Treloar as they campaign to get their stories heard.
