But the atrocities on our evening news are the tip of a vast iceberg. Security services are striving to contain a staggering 3,000 jihadists, far-right extremists and other potential threats. We are in a new age of terror, with self-radicalising, hard-to-categorise individuals planning violence  but each one caught by the British state tells us something about British society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor every successful plot in the six years since Westminster Bridge, more than twice as many have been foiled. Some were thwarted by nerve-wracking undercover operations; others were narrowly averted by heroic citizens, or ruined by the absurd mistakes of would-be attackers. Invariably, the all-too-human stories of these failed terrorists reveal the true picture of UK extremism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough interviews with senior counter-terror figures and astonishing court testimony, \u003ci\u003ePlotters\u003c\/i\u003e unpacks how and why British terror attacks happen  and don't.
