8 Nights Out West (2022)

Episode Overview

In this documentary series, Professor Robert Winston explores the lives of 25 British children as they grow from early childhood into their twenties. Today's children encounter unprecedented levels of stress, with seven-year-olds taking exams and rising instances of bullying. Some face the heart-wrenching reality of terminal illness within their families. The series raises a critical question: does this early exposure to stress equip children for the unpredictable challenges of adulthood, or is it an overwhelming burden at too young an age?
