This is the story of three men and their families who turned to anonymous strangers on the internet to discuss life, death, sex and Viagra.
Actress Juliet Stevenson, whose father died from cancer in 1993, narrates I Can't Believe I'm Telling You This, which charts a year in the life of three men from very different backgrounds who are desperately trying to come to terms with prostate cancer.
Together they try to come to terms with the disease, as they potentially face the end of their sex lives, a loss of dignity or even the loss of their lives.
Prostate cancer occurs in two thirds of all men by the age of 80, and with diagnosis increasing threefold in three decades it has become the most common cancer for men in the UK.
It affects a small part of the male reproductive system, the walnut-sized prostate gland, just below the bladder. Men find it difficult to talk about problems in this part of their body, and as a result awareness of prostate cancer is lower than many others. But despite its prevalence, if caught early, prostate cancer is increasingly survivable.
As patients turn to the internet, the medical establishment is adjusting to their patients knowing more about their disease, and this shared knowledge is changing the course of how illnesses are managed.
