Two worlds clash on the remote shores of Caithness: An Atomic Research Station brings new people, new technology and a new way of life into a remote, traditional rural world of fishermen and farmers. John Read's striking documentary looks at how these two, seemingly opposing cultures are coming together at Dounreay in the Scottish Highlands.

Narrated by Colin Wills.

Photography: Gordon Mackay and David Hanley
