Blood and Guts: a History of Surgery

on BBC Two England

5/5. Bloody Beginnings. The early days of surgery were pretty barbaric and the surgeon's knife was more likely to kill you than cure you. Michael Mosley reveals how surgery cast off its murky history of butchery and body-snatching to become the sophisticated, ground-breaking science of today. Producer Emma Jay ; Series producer Claudia Lewis
