On Wednesday, 9th March, 1630, BBC Radio 4 aired the following programme:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode..._Gut_Bacteria/

(I'm not sure if this BBC service is available outside of the UK.)

PD is not mentioned, but still of interest, e.g.:
- probably only one doctor in the UK is doing faecal transplants (for c. difficile, 20/21 successful);
- role of gut flora in some cancers, IBS, obesity.
