Minute by Minute: The Chernobyl Disaster

Senior reactor operator Leonid Toptunov was 25 years old when he sat down at the controls of Reactor Number Four at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It was just after midnight on April 26, 1986. He would be dead within three days. At 1:23am and 44 seconds, a power surge of catastrophic proportions tore the 1,000-tonne concrete roof off the reactor and blasted the equivalent of 500 Hiroshima bombs worth of radiation into the night sky above Soviet Ukraine. In Pripyat, a city of 50,000 people built for one purpose only: Chernobyl, the buses were already on their way. The residents would never return home. In extraordinary detail, Minute by Minute: Chernobyl reconstructs how the world's worst nuclear disaster unfolded – from the routine safety test that spiralled out of control, through the desperate hours as firefighters and engineers fought an invisible killer without knowing what they faced, to the cover-up that reached all the way to the Kremlin, and the clean-up operation that exposed around 700,000 people to dangerous levels of radiation. Narrated by legendary broadcaster Michael Buerk, this is the definitive minute-by-minute account of the Chernobyl disaster - 40 years on.

Iran: Not Strait Forward

For two months, Iran has held the global economy hostage through a narrow stretch of water and the world's most powerful military can't seem to do anything about it. With oil prices surpassing $100 a barrel; Trump's ceasefire extended for the fourth time; and negotiations deadlocked between US demands and Iranian hardliners who don't want to negotiate with Western officials, Chris Pleasance sits down with Daily Mail US political reporter Philip Nieto to untangle the mess. Why was America so unprepared? Why can't the West simply take the strait by force? And is the US - long guarantor of the world's open sea lanes - watching its superpower status slip away in real time?

Iran: Inside Operation Epic Fury

Iran's Supreme Leader is dead. Its military command has been shattered. Yet five days into the American-Israeli assault, Iran is firing back - at Israel, at the Gulf, and now at Turkey. Dubai, long flouted as the safest place in the Middle East, has been hit by drone and missile strikes. Ali Khamenei's son has emerged as the favourite to replace him, but Israel threatened on Wednesday to assassinate any Iranian leader picked to succeed the Ayatollah. Daily Mail Special Correspondent David Patrikarakos and US Senior Political Reporter Elina Shirazi break down the latest developments, what Iran's retaliation means for the region, and the questions at the heart of this crisis: who will now fill the political vacuum and what next for the Iranian people?

The Epstein Files: Was Epstein A Russian Agent?

Following the explosive revelations in the latest release of Epstein files, historian Andrew Lownie joins Sarah Vine to unpack what we know. The conversation covers the evidence that Epstein ran a blackmail operation with Russian intelligence connections, the wider royal family's knowledge of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor's activities, institutional cover-ups, and whether King Charles will address the crisis. Lownie argues this scandal surpasses Profumo in scale and represents a grave threat to public trust in British institutions. Follow us on Instagram @dmgnewmedia.

Beckham vs Beckham

ON January 19th 2026, the showbiz and celebrity world was rocked by a series of Instagram stories from Brooklyn Peltz-Beckham. There had long been reported a rift and unease between his parents, David and Victoria Beckham and that of his wife Nicole Peltz and her hugely wealthy and powerful family. Nothing however, prepared the world for what unfolded. Accusations of control and coercive behaviour, legal threats, displaced dogs and inappropriate wedding dances. To say it was a wild bolt out of the blue is an understatement. Celebrities simply don't behave like this in public... and certainly not the Beckhams. In the episode of Deep Dive, the Daily Mail's contributing Editor Showbiz and podcaster Jamie East dissect the news and contemplate what impact this will have on Britain's unofficial Royal Family.
