Did you find it too graphic considering the time it was on (9-10pm), or do you think that in the context of health and science, the programmes were educational?
The TV Show would love to know what you thought of the series. Do you think this would be a good topic for a debate on the next programme (Saturday May 10)?
Remember to keep an eye on The TV Show website for the latest on upcoming show debates – nothing is set in stone until a day or so before transmission.

I think this is a fantastic show. I was able to diagnose a long standing problem of mine thanks to it, took the info from the show and showed it to the Doc who agreed I was suffering with an illness drescribed in the programme. I do wonder about the folks on it though that are too embarressed to see their own Doc but don't mind millions of strangers viewing their 'bits'.

I think it's one of those things you sit and watch and have no idea why....it's just intriguing.
Although, if it were me personally and I'd avoided going to my doctor for x number of years then why would your first point of call be national tv? I know some of them have seen a lot of doctors who haven't solved their problems but there were quite a few who said they'd never been to a doctor about their ailment.
Although the premise of quick and probably free (and seeminly quick!) treatment would reel me in if I had a problem that warranted surgery or intensive treatment. They're like an efficient NHS!
Good Show, though I enjoy the consensus about people 'too embarrased to goto their own doctors' then exposing to prime time tv?? especially "sex therpist" tracy cox (ex FHM magazine) who was filmed from the back, and blurred?? pot-kettle-black.
Good programme though, and excellent on-line support too (self examination video)
This type of show, and especially those on C5, remind me of that Mitchell & Webb sketch about 'The Boy With An Arse For A Face'. It's basically the modern-day equivalent of a Victorian freak show using the excuse of fitting into the factual bracket.
Hi i thought the show was brilliant very interesting informative i do agree though that people who won't go to the doctors with certain illnesses will readily go to the docs on this primetime tv programme to air their "bits" . I expect that the mens "bits" programme had actually encouraged men who are shy to their symptoms actually go to sort their problem out with their own GP well done CH4 for a great show..
I think it is a good show...but what I don't understand is if they are to embarrased to go to the doctor ,and yet happy to show all their bits in front of thousands of tv viewers.. imagine what the neighbours would say

I agree, it's amazing what people will do for fifteen minutes of fame. Andy was right
