History
The Green Bottle Fly, or Blowfly, and its voracious maggots, have long been associated with filth and decay. Typhoid, cholera, anthrax, dysentery, worms — these are the calling cards of the fly. From the foggy hollows of Wales to the gloomy practices of medieval barber surgeons and surgical chophouses of the American Civil War, Baker leads viewers on an adventure through the remarkable life cycle of these creatures, explores their sordid history and reveals their medical renaissance as they save life and limb in today ’s modern hospitals.

At the council of Tours in 1163, the clergy were forbidden to draw blood or to act as physicians and surgeons on the grounds that it was sacrilegious for ministers of God to draw blood from the human body. The barbers took up the duties relinquished by the clergy and the era of barber-surgeons began. The connection between barbery and surgery continued for more than six centuries and the barber profession reached its pinnacle during this time.
