The Story of Asthma Island

Did anyone see this on BBC3 on Tuesday? It's on iPlayer until Tuesday. Pretty good. Makes you think the NHs really aren't that bad.

Hi Vicky,

No I didn't see it as no clever box on TV yet but will try BBC web site, The other programme was very interesting.

I was facinated by Tristan Da Cunha though. I have heard about the high asthma levels. TDC is overseen by the UK as it is a UK overseas teritory like The Falklands ...who also have a good dollop of asthma, though probaby from the cool, dry climate, pollens etc.

I saw both programs, watched Asthma Island on BBC 4 first, recording Horizon and watched it a day later. To those of you who are unable to watch Asthma Island, don't worry, you didn't miss much. It was pretty much repeated within the Horizon program.

Now I know who to thank.

Thank you to my dear forebears. The mail boat may only drop by months apart, but they still managed a Special Delivery of this load! The Welsh line did not do any better either. Hit from both sides.
