This topical special presented by Anne Robinson marks the 50th anniversary of the partial legalisation of abortion. Fifty years on from the Abortion Act of 1967, abortion and the debate surrounding it is rarely far from the national and international news agenda. In just the last year there have been two separate attempts to change the legislation in Parliament, and with Donald Trump recently expanding the policy that bans US aid for overseas abortion providers and many believing he may have taken the first step towards banning abortion in the US, the debate has intensified here in the UK. The Abortion Act of 1967 was a groundbreaking political act that shook the nation and - many argue - paved the way for a fairer, more equal society. Fifty years later the same legal guidelines govern who can and can't have an abortion. Anything outside those conditions remains a criminal offence and the act never applied in Northern Ireland, which means many women having to travel to mainland Britain for terminations. This programme asks if this 50 year-old legislation reflects the views of modern Britain. Do recent advances in medicine mean the law is out of date? Anne Robinson says: 「Abortion remains one of the most contentious and highly debated subjects. For millions of women, worldwide it's likely to be a traumatic choice. During the course of a groundbreaking programme we will get to prod and probe the subject as never before. A woman's right to choose? A father's right to have a say? After what time is an abortion unacceptable? Is it insupportable at any time? "Fifty years on from the l967 Abortion Act we will discover just what the nation NOW thinks about abortion.」 To answer these and other questions, the programme is underpinned by one of the most comprehensive polls ever conducted into British attitudes towards abortion. A group of people with an array of opposing views and experiences will then be brought together to discuss the findings. Over three days, the group will hear testimony from experts and answer the question: if we were to rewrite the law to reflect their opinions and beliefs, how exactly would we like it to change?
