My ex-father-in-law was a big wig at Wlyfa Nuclear Power Station on Anglesey.For many months after Chernobyl went off they set the radiation alarms off when they went in to the plant.

Ah Calder Hall...Sadly coming down now (well the cooling towers have anyway and the reactor buildings are currently being decommissioned).
Having been born and raised in Seascale, they were such a familiar landmark; along with the AGR golf ball, the two Windscale Piles and B205.
Although I am a supporter of Nuclear tech and power I don't for a minute hold ANY illusions over how dirty a site the Sellafield complex was and is.
One easily illustrated point are the heat exchangers attached to the reactor building (the pipework that appears to be in scaffolding on the four corners of the white building just by the cooling tower). On most modern reactor designs, they are inside the containment building, not plonked on the outside!
Everyone on site and anyone with a direct line of sight to them were subjected to 50 years of Gamma 'direct shine', a problem that was only recently made officially public. Never enough to be deemed hazardous, but over that period of time you have to wonder...
At least I hold the family record of being the only one of the 7 of us never to have worked there, although there's still time :(
