Countdown to Life: The Extraordinary Making of You (2015), by the British Broadcasting Corporation and The Open University

In 2015, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) partnered with The Open University to produce the three-part documentary series, Countdown to Life: The Extraordinary Making of You. Michael Mosley, a British television producer and journalist, hosts the documentary. Along with narrating animated scenes of a growing fetus [2] in the womb [3], Mosley meets with individuals around the world who experienced mutations that can arise in the womb [3]. Introduced over the course of the three episodes, several people share their personal stories of how their bodies did not develop correctly prior to birth. Throughout the documentary, animations of fetal development and individuals? stories about their own birth defects [4] transition back and forth to show how a fetus [2] develops. Countdown to Life: The Extraordinary Making of You informed the public of what happens to the fetus [2] at the point of conception [5] to the point of birth at forty weeks.
