Horizon: What Time is Your Body?

on BBC Two England

Why is a man at his sexiest at seven in the morning? Why do we get drunker at lunchtime than dinner? The answer - Body Time. Recent research suggests that man possesses a series of internal 'biological clocks' which control most of his physical and mental functions. As we no longer live a 'normal' life it is becoming increasingly important to health and happiness to know where they are located and how they work, that if we are driving or working late at night, 4 am is the danger hour: our temperature is lowest, we're at our least efficient and most prone to accidents.
The investigation of Body Time is one of the most intriguing frontiers of science.
