Dr Know w/t ( 1×60’) – The family GP has long been at the heart of the British constitution, but an ever increasing population of family members suffering from every-day ailments is clogging up the NHS. From kids with recurring tummy bugs to parents with chronic colds, there are routine health issues that can be easily prevented with a bit of help. In this showDr Xand Van Tulleken and Dr Ellie Cannon will be enlisted by families whose common health conditions have become so persistent that it’s affecting all of their lives.The doctors will be surprising families and subjecting everyone to a head to toe MOT. Inspecting everything from what they eat, to their weight, cholesterol, blood pressure, bacteria found in their house and even their pets in a bid to diagnose the cause of their problems.

As well as putting the family under the microscope the doctors will be in a bid to show us how our everyday routines and habits are affecting the state of the nation’s health. From how regularly you should wash your towels and sheets to lifting the lid on toilets and bathroom bugs – even the family pet will be under scrutiny! No stone will be left unturned in a bid to crack down on the UK’s wellbeing.
