Nuclear power support from former sceptic Mark Lynas
Environmentalist Mark Lynas said he "grew up hating nuclear power" but later realised that "continuing to oppose nuclear was a mistake".
His set out the reasons for his U-turn in his film from Hinkley Point in Somerset, where EDF Energy is planning to build one of the latest generation of nuclear power stations.
He said: "Many people are terrified of nuclear power but the truth is that it's extraordinarily safe", but claimed that "we are going to have to learn to love nuclear power".
