    • June 21, 2012
    • BBC Three

    Cherry Healey wants to find out what a modern relationship looks like in a world where anything goes. Does single equal sad and lonely or is it free and sexy? Is coupledom the mark of success or is staying faithful to the same person forever now just plainly absurd? Cherry wonders, on meeting some serial daters, just how many is too many? She also spends time with identical twins, one single and one married, teenagers who are into threesomes and a young man who is desperate to meet 'the one'. Can she get to the heart of things and find whether they all really prefer being single or settled?

    • June 28, 2012
    • BBC Three

    Cherry Healey sets out to discover why we have become a nation of pill-poppers. In a world where we can buy legal drugs online in the time it takes to point and click, how informed are the choices we make, and how much do we rely on the pills we take? Whether we are chasing a legal high or trying to cure a physical problem, are we all addicted to something these days? She meets a range of young Brits, from thrill seekers to self-confessed addicts, to discover why we're all in love with the idea of the quick fix. On the way, will Cherry be able to resist having a go at laughing gas and smoking salvia, and can she kick a lifetime's habit of slimming aids?

    When fake tans, hair extensions, pumping iron and lunchtime botox have become the norm, have our looks actually become more important than who we are? Is vanity necessarily a negative thing or can we harness it and use it to change our lives? Cherry Healey meets a cast of characters, from those who obsess about their looks to those who absolutely refuse to, in a bid to find out whether your looks can really change your life for the better. On the way she has to decide whether to stop shaving her body hair and whether or not she has the guts to get a tattoo.
