A Bit of an Experience: Tuesday's Documentary

on BBC One London

A film by Michael Latham and Gordon Thomas
It is two years since this award-winning documentary was first shown. Now the end of the story can be told. On the operating table lies a young mother. Round her the surgeon and his team gather to start one of the most difficult operations. Nobody knows what the outcome will be.
This remarkable film tells how Heather Kent and her husband coped with this sudden crisis in their lives. As Heather calmly departed for hospital they both knew that it might be the end of their life together.

"An undisputed masterpiece" (Robert Ottaway, Daily Sketch)
"Marvellously compelling" (Ludovic Kennedy, Sunday Telegraph)
"It made shattering viewing" (Rum Hall, Sunday Times)
