On September 6th, 2018, news broke that Hollywood icon Burt Reynolds had died. Burt broke into the bigtime by winning the lead in gritty survivalist drama Deliverance in 1972, and became a household name in the late 70’s and early 80’s in light-hearted car chase movies such as Smokey and the Bandit, and Cannonball Run. Burt was box-office gold, but behind all the fame and fortune he was battling demons. Despite his easy-going image, Burt suffered panic attacks that were so severe that he needed to be hospitalised for checks. To combat this stress and anxiety Burt turned to large doses of anti anxiety medications. To make matters worse, to cope with the injuries he picked up doing stunts on film and TV, he added painkiller medications into the mix . His reliance on prescription pills turned into addiction and led to an overdose and a coma – but the star survived and went on to conquer his addictions after decades of struggle. Towards the end of his life Burt had appeared stooped and in pain in public appearances – so what had happened to reduce this former Hollywood hunk to a hunched, unsteady figure, and could it provide vital clues to his eventual death? World renowned forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Hunter analyses the crucial details of Burt troubled life to find the answer.

On the morning of May 29th, 2010 the news broke that Hollywood icon Dennis Hopper had died. Dennis was an icon of the silver screen, famed for intense portrayals in twisted maniacs and dark hearted villains. In 1969 he made cinema history by writing, directing and co-starring in the revolutionary road movie Easy Rider. The film tore up Hollywood’s movie-making rule book, and made $60m from a budget of under $400,000, but Dennis’ follow up picture, the Last Movie, was a commercial disaster. It’s failure sent him into a spiral of extreme drinking and drug taking that lasted more than a decade. Dennis was ultimately forced into rehab and underwent intensive addiction therapy. Dennis also had a turbulent love life. He was married 5 times, and wed his last bride, 29 year old Victoria Duffy, when he was 60. In 2009, Dennis revealed he had prostate cancer, and he died 7 months later, aged 74. It’s common for those diagnosed with Prostate cancer to live for more than a decade afterward – so why did Dennis die so quickly? World renowned forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Hunter forensically examines Dennis Hopper’s dramatic life and discovers the truth could lay in a secret that Dennis kept from the world for over 10 years.
