Michael Mosley’s legacy will live on, says fellow TV doctor as final interview airs
Dr Michael Mosley has been hailed as “modest and humble” by fellow TV doctor Chris van Tulleken. A special programme featuring the last interview conducted by the late Mosley, who died aged 67 last week after he went missing on the Greek island of Symi, aired on BBC Radio 4 on Friday morning (14 June). “Michael’s death has moved so many of us,” Van Tulleken said, introducing the programme. “His legacy is going to live on in our memories, every time we brush our teeth standing on one leg, we fast a little longer between meals, we build up our strength with squats or do any one of the other hundreds of tricks that he taught us.”

Dr ‘changed nation’s health habits’
A BBC special has remembered TV doctor Michael Mosley, whose trailblazing style of self-experimentation in the name of science changed “the health habits of a nation”.
Michael Mosley: The Doctor Who Changed Britain reminded viewers of his numerous examples of self-experimentation.
He put a needle through his anaesthetised hand, and swallowed a camera to film his lunch digesting at the Science Museum.
He turned his body into a “living laboratory” in BBC Four documentary Infested: Living With Parasites.
In a clip from the programme which featured on the tribute show, Mosley said: “The time has come to give myself tapeworm. I’m feeling mildly apprehensive. Well, I think I’m confident that it should be safe.”
Dr Mosley also demonstrated the nutritious value of blood in 2015 documentary titled The Wonderful World Of Blood by making two black puddings out of his own blood.
“Millions of us will know Michael Mosley as a TV doctor who opened our eyes to a healthier way of life,” TV doctor Hannah Fry said.
“Michael was an endless source of inspiration, helping us live life that little bit better. Changing the health habits of a nation.”
