A special spin-off programme of the BBC Four programme After Life for learners aged 7 – 11 years.

The team find out not just about the bacteria all around us, but the bacteria on our skin, in our mouths and in our stomachs. They look at the life cycle of flies and how they play an important part in the natural process of recycling and composting.
