In Reply to: I looked for the show and it was not on at 8 or 9 on our discovery channel... :-( (nt) posted by Cheryl on January 24, 2001 at 12:10:46:
Unfortunately both this documentary and "Headache - the Painful Truth" have only been shown on Discovery Health.
Though owned by Discovery, as I understand it, the latter is quite a minority channel available only by cable.
All I can suggest is pestering them to put both on their main channel and hoping it works.
At least you get to see these in the States! Nothing yet over here, though Moondance, who made the one first shown on Christmas Day are working on getting it on, I believe, Channel 4 (which being a terrestrial channel would be an improvement anyway!).
The "Painful Truth" one is being repeated in February - check at UKCH for the times, and get a friend with DH to video it.
Having now seen a print of it on video, I can recommend it - they spend 12 minutes of 45 on clusters, with interviews with P Goadsby, and a rather sad and embarrassing English chap, whose main employment seems to be as a dog-handler!
