BBC3 has commissioned eight documentaries for its third Body Image season, including the story of an 18-year-old who travels to Thailand to undergo a sex-change.
BBC3 will follow up last season’s Lucy: Teen Transsexual with Lucy: Teen Transsexual in Thailand , which continues the story of 18-year-old Lucy Parker (formerly Richard) as she travels to Thailand to undergo irreversible surgery to become a woman.
Lucy has already undergone two years of hormone treatment, psychological analysis and surgery, making her one of Britain’s youngest transsexuals.
