Can anyone help me find a documentary on narcolepsy?


In the UK a few years ago, there was a documentary about narcolepsy (the uncontrollable compulsion to fall asleep). For my psychology project part of it is to do with narcolepsy, and I would like to see this documentary again, but I don't know where to find it. Can someone help me out?

Thank you

The documentary was called "Living Nightmare", aired in 2003. The link to the BBC site about the documentary as well as the link to the transcript are listed below.
