Dramatic mobile phone video and eyewitness accounts tell the story of the 2024 floods that swept through towns in Valencia, to discover the role climate change may have played in a disaster that caused 228 deaths. The programme examines why a mobile phone alert was sent two hours too late, and how rising populations worldwide can force people to live in areas at risk of flooding
