ITV has commissioned a new three-part series which follows people undergoing gender reassignment surgery.
Sex Transition Clinic (working title) will be part-filmed by 24 hours in A&E-style fixed-rig cameras.
The series will observe trans people at every stage of the process – from early consultations, to starting hormonal treatment, to navigating the final steps of their transition. The dedicated clinic staff who guide patients through the procedure will also be featured.
"Gender dysphoria is a very important story of our time,” said ITV Controller of Factual, Jo Clinton Davis.
“Through the prism of the clinic, and the stories of a wide range of individuals who pass through its doors, the series will seek to shed a light on what it means to go through this life changing process - emotionally as well as physically," she said.
The documentary will be made by Renegade Pictures and Storyvault Films.
