The last programme of the series investigates man's desire to live forever. Genetic engineers are already working hard to isolate the genes responsible for ageing in humans in an effort to increase man's lifespan from decades to centuries. Meanwhile, some choose to freeze themselves after death in the hope that future societies will be medically advanced enough to repair their damaged bodies.

Presented by Gillian Anderson.
