Part two of two. Cameras chart the final minutes in the run-up to the 2017 detonation at Manchester Arena and in the aftermath, the emergency services' response. A mock terrorist attack run one year before the bombing was designed to discover any shortcomings. But on the night of the explosion, the national police response to terrorism, codenamed Operation Plato, failed to achieve its aims and the emergency services response was delayed.
