Episode 10 of 10

A new government means yet another reset for HS2 - so what does the future hold for the embattled project?

The new government is trying to get a grip of HS2, with yet another reset. Kate challenges the new minister, Lord Hendy, on the project’s future and also considers the legacy of HS2. Will Britain ever attempt something like it again? And will its image transform again once trains are actually, finally running?
