d_L_t Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Recently upgraded to a Class B substance again, Cannabis is said to be the world's favourite drug, but it’s also quite possibly one of the least well understood. Can cannabis cause schizophrenia as is often claimed? Is it addictive? Can it lead the user on to harder drugs? Or is it simply a herb, an undervalued medicine or, as the Rastas insist 'the weed of the field' as mentioned in the book of Genesis? In Horizon: The Evil Weed? - addiction specialist Doctor John Marsden discovers that modern science is finally beginning to find some answers to these, and other, questions. John traces the cannabis plants birthplace in Kazakhstan; finds the origins of our sensitivity to cannabis in the sea-squirt and finds out just what it does to our brains.

Guest El_Toko Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Horizon eh? Well if anyone is going to be impartial and factual, then it's the BBC, but that certainly doesn't gurantee anything, especially as horizon have a reputation for drama. I'll definitely watch it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyPage Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) report please for those of us not fortunate enough to be able to watch. It should be on BBC iPlayer ... do you not get that ? Else I can rip it to a torrent, or upload it to Rapidshare ..... although I wouldn't be too hopeful. "Horizon" used to be one of the best adult educational progs in the world, but of late it's gone a bit "pop-science" (or as I like to call it "science-lite") ... CSI has a *lot* to answer for ....
