Part two of Dust to Dust tells the story of Nellie Kershaw, an asbestos worker whose death in 1924 set an important precedent for the diagnosis of asbestos-related disease, as well the culture of cover-up around its dangers that would continue throughout the 20th Century until the final ban in the UK in 1999.
