    As part of the Dangerous Pleasures season, this three-part series looks at the biological process behind three of the most commonly used recreational drugs - cannabis, cocaine and ecstasy.

    Using groundbreaking CGI this episode follows the effect of ecstasy on the human body. Over the past 30 years ecstasy has become one of the world's most notorious drugs. No other illegal substance has had such an effect on fashion, music and how we party. This film follows two recreational ecstasy users over one night .Through graphic effects the viewer is taken on a journey deep inside the human body and the programme explains exactly how this powerful substance takes effect on the user's vital organs. Through the tour of the human body, we learn about the fascinating and often surprising scientific reasons for how these drugs work and also the damage they can cause.
    The programme features interviews with toxicologists, neuro-scientists and medical pharmacologists who explain what actually happens in your body when you indulge, exploding a few myths in the process.
    With access to cutting edge research at the University of Chicago, we find out how ecstasy creates empathy in the user and how this could one day lead to the drug being used as a life-saving prescription medicine for use in therapy.

    i wont watch this for the fact i know how this drug works. very very very well. the good and the great. i think this episode will just highlight the "bad" points of the drug, yet "its safer then riding a horse".
    when i used to take this every single weekend i never had or seen or knew anyone that had had a bad experiance with the drug, by bad i dont just mean a dodgy pill. but im sure there are alot of people who had, i thought and still think its one of the best drugs out there for what it does and personally i think in moderation and if your not a total charver who thinks its cool to pop loads of them to show off who is the king of the charves then there more or less safe, i think recreationally wise this is the safest drug out there, and follwing 2nd is coke, i find smoking weed very very dangerous and there are massive long term effects to this safe herb
    anyway, i did say that whole speech while listing to shakespears sister - stay

    Fucks sake. I thought this might have been well-informed.

    They are definitely focusing on the negatives more than the positives. They have even played the Leah Betts card

    watched the cannabis one behind my hand cringing, it'll basically be more of the same this time i was thinking.

    wasnt there someone on the board trying to get people off here on that documentary at one point last year?

    Leah Betts! STILL!
    it's a gateway drug.......
    my son died after a three day binge on a cocktail of drugs one of which was ecstasy........ so ecstasy is a killer
    ........i lost my liver
    it makes you hot and heat will cause all your internal organs to fail
    only 5% of pills contain any ecstasy - well in that case all this shit is most likely caused by the other 95% then innit

    They tried to bring rare cases across as being the common norm

    The lad who died after a weekend binge had been on coke, ket, whizz, Mdma and i'm sure there was more drugs including smack (if that bit is even true)..... I dare say it wasn't just the MD that killed him

    Half a pill and she had liver failure?

    It would probably be a good thing if she died - We could do with less people with genetic tendancies to liver failure when drugs are taken in such minute amounts. (JOKE).

    This was on in my gaff for about five minutes in the background before it was turned off. Nearly as bad as the HPV 'documentary' last week by the same deluded girl 'film maker'.

    That's a shame because the brain: a secret history on the bbc last week was well worth a watch.

    Ended up with the reported taking psilocybin (mushrooms) and describing the beauty of transcending his body into what he could only describe as 'hyperspace'

    Loved how the BBC waited a whole 12 seconds before showing a picture of Leah Betts. Turned it straight off after that.
