    Lightbulb Scientists "Sniff Out" Parkinsonian Symptoms Through Smell

    Originally, the affliction was diagnosed as far back as 1817 by a James Parkinson - after whom the disease was named and became officially recognised as a medical condition.

    could ALL change, because of a woman from Perth, Scotland - Joy Milne - whose incredible olfactory powers of deduction are claimed to've detected the presence of the Parkinsonian Syndrome in her consultant anaesthetist husband, Dr Les Milne, ten years' before the actual symptoms manifested themselves.

    ... y'know I've since discovered there's a TV programme featuring this woman tonight at 7.30. But, for some reason ... ... it's being screened on 'BBC Scotland' only. Pity!

    Ok ... I realise the remark I'm about to make may seem somewhat insensitive in the circumstances. However, it's high time there was a major "shake~up" of television schedules to allow for programmes of National interest (of which this is one!) to be transmitted simultaneously throughout the entire UK.
