Dr Peter Jepson-Young was a young Canadian doctor who, through a series of television diaries, turned his own battle against Aids into a public crusade. Despite the onset of blindness, skin cancer and other debilitating Aids-related illnesses, he was committed to his broadcasts. With disarming honesty and humour, he discusses the many issues surrounding his life, his sexuality and his illness. Dr Peter died on 15 November 1992, having produced more than 100 diaries.
