A 13-part series presented by Colin Blakemore 6: Madness
The true nightmare of schizophrenia is revealed at St Elizabeth's Hospital,
Washington, DC - the disease is devastating for both patients and their families. While the most severe sufferers don't want to stay in hospital, they cannot be supported in the community. In Britain, Professor Blakemore meets a schizophrenic whose 'voices' are now controlled by drugs - and he finds new hope in research on the origins of madness.
