Sydney- BBC Worldwide’s Sydney office has licensed a package of factual programs to Australia’s Seven Network, led by Fight for Life (6 x 50’), a BBC / Discovery Channel / DCTP production celebrating the body’s capacity to counter serious illness. Focusing on patients in the Emergency room, nanotechnology, electron microscopes and CGI enable viewers to see the internal landscape of the body under threat, from the trauma of birth to the recklessness of young adulthood and the fragility of old age. Also in the package are three one hour programs from British documentary-maker Louis Theroux: Under the Knife, an investigation of liposuction in the US; Gambling in Las Vegas, where he spends a weekend at a casino; and The Most Hated Family in America, in which he profiles the Phelps family, who picket the funerals of US soldiers, arguing the Iraq war is God’s punishment for tolerating homosexuality.
