[QUOTE="KernowKeith, post: 2478186, member: 517495"] Don't know if anyone else here listens to the Archers on Radio 4, but interesting to note that this week's episodes revealed that a returning member of the cast (Mike Tucker...) has been told he's pre-diabetic. The storyline is, essentially, that he's in denial about it and has tried to hide the diagnosis from his family - however they've now found out and are encouraging him to face up to the situation. Considering how the Archers series has been praised for its handling of such matters as domestic abuse, alcoholism etc in the past, it will be interesting to see if they persist with the pre-diabetic storyline and how they handle it. As far as I can remember, it's the first time that pre-diabetes has ever been highlighted on a 'soap'. [/QUOTE]
