Shut-Ins: Britain's Fattest People

Claire has been bed-bound for the last six years. Trapped by her 40-stone body, she can only see the world through the window of the room where she spends her life. Claire has two daughters - Tracey and Jasmine - who need to do nearly everything for her. Tracey has two young children and a home of her own, so the burden of care falls mainly on 19-year-old Jasmine. The programme tracks the family's journey as local surgeon Nick Carter battles to get Clare the help she needs.

Andrew is married to Sharon. Four years ago Sharon got her weight down from 48 stone to 30 stone and started to have a life again. In a bizarre reversal of fortunes, it is now Andrew who needs help after his weight ballooned to 36 stone. He's been forced to give up his job and even personal care is a daily struggle. Andrew feels like his life has come to a halt. Sharon feels she is being dragged backward. Their relationship is in tatters and Sharon's dream of having a child seems further away than ever. Andrew turns to Sharon's surgeon, who recommends a new and experimental procedure. The next six months prove an uphill struggle. Can Andrew do enough to save his life and his marriage?
