The Bodymatters Roadshow

on BBC One London

This week Maggie Philbin and Alan Maryon Davis , brave the Common Cold Unit, Salisbury.
If you think having a cold is miserable, imagine spending your annual holiday trying to catch one! And at this holiday camp, rules are strict. If you don't keep away from everyone but your flatmates, you risk losing your El.75 a day pocket money.
In the idyllic Wiltshire countryside, volunteers lie back for two weeks, only to have cold virus dropped up their noses. For 43 years these intrepid guinea pigs have been coughing and sneezing for medical research. Now take your last chance to follow their progress, as this summer the Common Cold Unit closes - without having found a cure. It's a problem not least for the couple who have been coming for 12 years, including their honeymoon! Director STUART MCDONALD Producer TERESA HUNT
