    Synopsis:
    The eagerly-awaited prophetic thriller, written and adapted for television by leading science-fiction author Stephen Gallagher and directed by Lawrence Gordon Clark (Harry's Game), comes to DVD in its original, uncut format, almost two decades after it was first broadcast.

    Fertility research centre, The Jenner Clinic, has been destroyed in an explosion and the entire staff wiped out by someone or something of superhuman strength.

    Journalist Peter Carson (John Lynch - Sliding Doors, Hardware) fears his girlfriend, Nurse Tracy Pickford, is one of the victims. As he begins to investigate the tragedy, he is drawn into a nightmare of secrecy, violence and hostility as the Government seeks to hide the truth about the clinic's work, determined that nothing will stand in the way of scientific progress.
