The Water Cure by Almey St. John Adcock with Gudrun Ure and Preston Lockwood
From the professions to the Royal Family, both genuine and imagined hypochondriacs endured the privations of cold douche baths, strict dieting, and temperance, whilst imbibing many gallons of natural water, as did Sir Humphrey and Lady Jarvis.
Produced by BRIAN HULME in the BBC's Midland studios
