Tinderbox Britain - Are we ready for more wildfires?

"Tinderbox"conditions created by a long, hot, dry summer brought a record number of wildfires in 2026. Dozens of homes were destroyed or damaged, huge areas of land burned, and one man died. But experts are warning there may be worse to come in future as climate change makes conditions for wildfires in the UK even more likely. The Government banned disposable barbecues in the summer, sent out a wildfire alert to people's mobile phones, and is now planning to hold a wildfire summit. File on 4 Investigates looks at whether the country is prepared for the growing threat, and if the emergency services have the resources to cope.Presenter: Adrian Goldberg Producer: Fergus Hewison Production Co-ordinators: Tim Fernley & Tom Dunster Technical Producer: Richard Hannaford Editor: Tara McDermott
