Drunk

Most of us drink like there is no tomorrow, despite the looming hang over, the government warnings and our parents’ good advice. We do stupid things when we are drunk. We’ve heard that brain cells die and that we can become alcoholics. But we couldn’t care less. We’re having a great time, laughing all the way to the bar. But would you not like to know the truth about drinking? During the course of six episodes, this series gives alcohol the mythbuster-treatment. Do beer goggles really exist? Will Champagne make you more drunk than ordinary wine? Can you blame intoxication for all the stupid things you do? And is there really no cure for a hangover? We use scientific research to answer all these questions and more. By giving alcohol to human guinea pigs in a studio setting, and by documenting normal people from different backgrounds when they party, this series tells you what alcohol really does to us.
