I watched that on 4oD a few months ago

I can't remember it properly, but didn't everyone improve by the end except for one girl because her parents didn't want her to have the treatment?? Something like that... unless i'm thinking of a different tv show. :laugh:

yep, but I don;t think they were completely cured, also the show is left with no real resolution, even erin brockovich looks into it, but no source to their illness is ever found

it's just finished, i don't think it mentioned anything about the girls getting better (in fact one got worse)

They all obviously took a few too many blue ghosts

Yep, it was one of the most unsatisfactory documantasies I've watched.

I expected it to end with, this is what caused it and now they're all getting better.

But it just leaves us wondering, it could be aliens for all we know.

Are they drugs?
