British businessman Simon Binner was diagnosed with aggressive motor neurone disease in January 2015, and given two years to live. With the finality of that diagnosis, and the knowledge of the
toll the disease would take on both him and his family, Binner made the decision to end his life at a Swiss assisted suicide clinic. This program follows Binner, his family and friends as they
come to terms with the impending reality of that choice, providing a personal focus for the many questions that loom large in the right to die debate. “It’s one of those dinner party conversations you have,” says Binner’s wife, Debbie, at one point, “never dreaming that you’d ever actually be having the conversation.”
