Description

Interview with Wilma Godfrey, of Maida Vale in London, about the compensation claims of victims of the arthritis drug Opren. As a result of taking the drug, she now hardly ever leaves her bed-sit, because the sunlight makes her ill. She says the offer of compensation is derisory, especially when the company has just announced profits of more than three hundred and sixty million pounds. The male interviewer is Mark Percy. Broadcast on the AM programme.
