Body Story

Bad Taste (2x7)

: 15, 2001

Mike Small is in big trouble. Body Story reveals the inside story of food poisoning, as computer graphics allow us to witness the invasion of his gut by millions of tiny salmonella bacteria. They've only got one aim - to breed. Mike's body fights back - with cells that slither across his gut lining to take on the bacteria, and with cruder methods to flush the bacteria out - in either direction. As the battle gets increasingly ugly, Mike's latest assignment - taking the snaps for a frozen vegetable company calendar - looks like it might be flushed down the pan.
