BBC Midlands science correspondent David Gregory reports that although the
Americans have claimed much of the credit for developing the atomic bomb,
another story is emerging. Scientists and researchers in wartime Birmingham
did much of the original, groundbreaking work which was to change the world.

David Gregory's television documentary, BBC Midlands Report: The Right Side
of Wrong will be shown on Thursday 17 Feb at 1930 GMT on BBC2.
