This documentry was shown in the UK earlier in the year. As sad as it was it was an amazing programme about an amazing guy. For those that didnt see it, its being repeated on Channel 4 on Monday October 4th 8.00pm.
It certainly makes you appreciate life.

I totally agree with Pippa here. We watched the program and it's an extremely moving account about a guy with a skin disease and the last few months of his life. He was a wonderful guy with a an amazing, wicked sense of humour and a great personality.
The program is a must see.

If you're lucky, you're able to receive it. It's in English, you just have to ignore the Dutch subtitles. ;)
