Life Inside Fukushima's Exclusion Zone

Fukushima disaster five years on; Democratic debate in Florida; George Martin's legacy.

It has been almost five years since the earthquake and tsunami triggered a series of meltdowns at the Fukushima nuclear plant on the north-east coast of Japan. About 100,000 are still unable to go home. Our correspondent Rupert Wingfield-Hayes went back to Fukushima and reports on what it is like inside the exclusion zone.
