They include founding executive producer Allan Hogan, Jennifer Byrne, Charles Wooley, Helen Dalley, Ray Martin, Ross Greenwood, Michael Pascoe, Ross Coulthart, Adam Shand, Laurie Oakes, and the original host, Jim Waley.

Nothing could have prepared us for the enormity of the response. We look back on these exclusive reports by Ross Coulthart, which lifted the lid on Australia's worst medical disaster. more |
