Gail Porter to Make TV Show About Baldness
For those of you in the UK or or with other access to the BBC comes a notice from This Is London (Second item in the article):
Gail Porter is to make a TV show about her hair loss.
The presenter, 35, has been left bald by the condition alopecia.
She will explore the condition in a programme for BBC1’s One Life strand, interviewing fellow sufferers and looking at society’s reaction to bald women.
“It’s not just a film about Gail, it’s about what it’s like to be a woman without hair,” executive producer Madonna Benjamin told Broadcast magazine. (link)
Sounds interesting. Can anyone help me out with ideas for getting a copy? I’m one of the those cheap lads across the pond who won’t spring for digital cable.

Hello there,
I am a 24 year old Irish girl who also suffers from alopecia.i have lost my hair twice in 4 years and i know the suffering that people might experience. If there was any way to contact Gail or her management team, i would be eager to do so! I believe there could be alot done to help people (male/female ,young /old) in dealing with this condition. I also believe that someone like Mrs. Porter would be able to get the ball rolling and i would be only willing to help. It would be nice to create something good out of the condition

ken,
You might want to check Amazon.co.uk or the BBC directly. I’m not aware of any outlets in the US.

would love to contact gail. I am 31 and lost all my hair 7 years ago. During two pregnancies it returned only to fall out when each baby was 4 months old. I had some reiki healing and within a month my hair was growing back.

Hi there, my name is Damalie and lost my hair within 14 days in Feb. 1992. I’ve watched Gail Porter’s alopecia experience, very unfortunate! Hair Loss changed me for ever;It’s a condition I had to live with permanently, the hair grows for six months and breaks in a day! Its very hurt breaking to see my hair go and there is nothing that can stop it! Hair loss is horrible, i don’t like to think about it.! All of you out there, be strong.
