LONDON (AFP) - Channel 4 television is looking for volunteers for a documentary which will look into dead bodies during the process of decomposition.
"Dust to Dust", the first project of its kind in Britain, will be monitored by leading scientists who hope to improve their knowledge of human decomposition.
Channel 4 stated that the experimental documentary will be filmed in a "secure and secret location" and that the full consent of donors and their families will be required.
"The scientific community admits that they are woefully uninformed about what happens to the body when somebody dies," said Kevin Lygo, director of the independent channel.
