Series 2 - Bonus Episode - Extra Dose

A Petri dish of funny and fascinating extra unheard bits from Series 2.

Further details

This is a special episode of unheard bits that couldn't be squeezed into Series 2, featuring more fascinating medical insights, extended bits and a whole Petri dish of jokes - some more cultured than others.

Laura Smyth shares more on sleep, Zoe Lyons delves into transplants and Dr Lindsey Fitzharris takes Kiri through more weird ritualistic historical medical practices. Dr Matt Morgan talks about the time he stripped naked and covered himself in honey in the name of science, Daliso Chaponda is still in denial about denial, Dr Mark Williams blows Kiri's mind with his unexpected swimming career, and Reverend Benjamin Perry opens up again about the benefits of crying.
