Beloved TV doctor and journalist Dr Michael Mosley’s final TV show is set to air tonight on Channel 5, months after his tragic death. The documentary series, titled “Michael Mosley: Wonders of The Human Body,” will explore aging and ways to improve health. Dr Mosley was working on the show until his passing at the age of 67 in June on a Greek island, where he was found after a four-day search. Greek authorities concluded he died of natural causes, with an inquest scheduled for November.
In the series, Dr Mosley travels around the UK, meeting patients and health experts. In the first episode, he visits Fife in Scotland to follow a patient’s journey before brain surgery and explores cold water swimming benefits and heart problem prediction tests. The decision to broadcast the show was made in agreement with Mosley’s family, ensuring his final work reaches audiences.
