Countdown to Life: The Extraordinary Making of You

Michael Mosley presents this three-part science documentary focusing on the biology of life from conception to birth. The series explores every little detail that makes a human being -- from the way someone smiles to eye colour -- everything that is created while a baby is still in its mother's womb. In the first eight weeks following conception, the human foetus is formed; this crucial time is discussed in terms of how physical organs are developed. Any abnormalities at this point can vastly affect the health and well-being of humans later on in life and can even determine the length of time in which they can live.
