Documentary Description Achieving 'better sex' is the Holy Grail of sex research, but science is divided over the methods. Is it all in the mind? Or is the solution to be found in pills and surgery? The second programme in the series features the latest pioneering research into sex and into the science of finding the right partner. It looks at the pros and cons of chemical fixes, such as Viagra, and the moral dilemmas of developing 'love drugs' to pump up the libido and attract a partner. The film also features some strange episodes in the history of sex research, such as the work of Wilhelm Reich, a pal of Einstein's, who claimed he'd discovered the hidden libidinous force that makes the universe tick, which he called 'orgone'. Look out for the eye-watering operation to turn a Taiwanese man's penis into a kind of angle-poise lamp, and the attempt to rejuvenate middle-aged men by transplanting monkey testicles.
