The late, much-loved Dr Michael Mosley, who was always so fascinated about our amazing anatomy, presents Channel 5’s poignant series Wonders of the Human Body, which was filmed before his tragic death in June.

In it, he takes us on an extraordinary journey around the human body and reveals, among other things, why we get creaky joints, how we remember to breathe and whether our bodies hold the power to stop cancer cells multiplying.

‘We explore how the human body adapts and changes to the countless challenges it faces,’ says Mosley in the programme. ‘And I’ll also show how we can all live healthier, longer lives.’
