Professor Dame Sue Black is one of Britain's leading forensic anthropologists. She's often called to crime scenes to help establish who the victim was and she can find traces of someone’s identity in places you wouldn't imagine possible. Sue tells Jo Fidgen about her extraordinary job which, at times, has taken her to dangerous parts of the world.
