TV: Pick of the day

1		When Beauty Goes Wrong
		(28 July, BBC3, 9pm)
		Across the world there are many variations
		in the idea of what it means to be beautiful,
	5	but most cultures are in broad agreement
		that a rotting nose, festering tongue or
		oozing foot growths do not fall into that
		category. This documentary follows the
		former BBC Blue Peter presenter Konnie
	10	Huq as she investigates some of the
		problems that can accompany our endless
		quest for beauty: the eyelash tint that
		nearly blinded a bride on her wedding day,
		a home hair-dye treatment that triggered a
	15	life-threatening anaphylactic shock1) and
		the excruciatingly painful and unsightly
		growths than can be the price to pay for a
		love of high heels.
2		Huq does not come across as an
	20	experienced investigative journalist: her
		interviewing technique largely consists of
		looking disgusted as some poor person reveals
		how their desire to be wrinklefree nearly cost
		them their nose, then squealing, “That’s so mad.”
	25	There is, however, a public service element
		lurking behind the wacky graphics and shock
		tactics: while the news that the regular use
		of sun beds can double your chances of skin
		cancer is far from revealing, the information
	30	about the dangers of having a piercing if you
		suffer from an existing heart condition might
		possibly stop someone from making not only a	35	Victoria Segal
		grave fashion mistake but also a potentially		The Sunday Times, 2008
		fatal one.
