The incredible story of the woman who can smell Parkinson's. Seventy-two-year-old Joy first recognised her superpower when she realised she could smell the disease in her own husband. She is now working with a team of medical scientists to help develop earlier detection of the illness.

Also, the terrible tale involving thousands of patients who were recalled and re-evaluated after a neurologist was found to be misdiagnosing patients. Janelle started seeing Dr Michael Watt with headaches, but after six months of treatment and several invasive and unnecessary procedures, she escaped his care. Many other patients were not as lucky.

Plus, the people defrauding the NHS by selling on prescriptions they no longer need. It's a lucrative business and also illegal.

And we're discussing the hype around hydration. Do we really need eight glasses of water a day? Do tea and coffee dehydrate you, and why does alcohol make you feel so dried out? Dr Xand has the answers.

Beyond the Gates

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
