Thanks for the advance notice, Julie.

I usually shun those studio crowd discussion shows - too often they are deliberately controversial and don't really try to resolve issues, merely agravate them. But maybe Montel and Oprah will be a bit more sensitive.

[Sarah Estella]

Doubt any of these will be shown on network television in the UK (very unfortunate this is). Possibly an airing on Living tv (sat & cable). The sex change series has already aired a few times over here on Discovery Health but is still very interesting stuff.

I'll try to keep an eye on the listings, but my subs to the monthly guide I use have now expired.

(I'll find another somewhere)

[Michelle Gray]

Thanks julie we should get them here in canada as well, I will check my Local listings here and see when they are on. we get all of the american networks here but only one channel from the uk being BBC world service on our Local cable.

I'll watch Montel, he's a very straight up person, unlike spri...spri... gawd I can't even say it:D
