Dr Alice Roberts: Don't Die Young

The Ears, Nose and Throat (2x5)

Air date: Jul 24, 2008

Dr Alice Roberts gets a short insight into what it is like for the nine million people in the UK who suffer from some form of hearing loss by using specially-designed headphones and she discovers how loud noise can cause irretrievable damage to our ears. Using her skills as an anatomist, Dr Alice also explains some of the roles of the nose and the throat and finds out why, for some, snoring can be a sign of a life-threatening condition.
