TV "It's a disgrace - Channel 4 hack me off." Professor Sue Black, a leading forensic anthropologist, is talking about Dust to Dust, a new Channel 4 programme which will show, for the first time on television, the gradual decomposition of a human corpse. Channel 4 have an unnamed volunteer - who is terminally ill - and once he or she has died, the cameras will roll. Prof Black was approached to take part in the programme but turned the producers down. "No serious academic or scientist would be associated with something like this," she says." -- Tiffany Jenkins writes for The First Post.
