Polonium-210 is a highly radioactive material made in a nuclear facility. Just one gram of the substance has the potential to kill millions.On that November afternoon, it was dropped into Litvinenko's cup of green tea by two secret agents.
But the ex-spy was not the only victim of an attack believed to have been sanctioned by Russian President Vladimir Putin, and which left a trail of radioactive contamination right across Europe.Hundreds of members of the public were exposed to the nuclear poison - none more so than the podcast's central character, Derek Conlon.
