Michael Mosley: The Doctor Who Changed Britain premieres Wednesday 3 July at 7.35pm

SBS has announced that it will air a special tribute to journalist, TV presenter and producer Dr. Michael Mosley following his death on the Greek island of Symi earlier this month. Michael Mosley: The Doctor Who Changed Britain premieres Wednesday 3 July at 7.35pm and will be followed by a repeat of Michael Mosley: The Truth About Sleep at 8.10pm on SBS.

Michael Mosley transformed the lives of millions of people. Michael Mosley: The Doctor Who Changed Britain looks back at an extraordinary broadcasting career which spanned almost 40 years.

Fronting series such as Australia's Sleep Revolution with Dr Michael Mosley, Australia's Health Revolution and Trust Me I'm a Doctor, Michael used his warm, often humorous approach to deliver important, life-changing health messages.

He started behind the scenes as an award-winning science journalist and producer, before becoming a much-loved presenter. His programs have made a lasting impact on the health habits of Australians and many around the world, from intermittent fasting to the benefits of a cold shower.

Celebrating Michael's career, this program marks the enormous impact he made, touching the lives of so many.

In Michael Mosley: The Truth About Sleep, Michael finds out what happens if we don't get enough sleep and looks at surprising solutions to help us get more.

SBS' Director of Television, Kathryn Fink said: Michael Mosley's work was not only ground-breaking, but also a true reflection of his dedication and passion to health and science and commitment to affecting real change that improves the health of many Australians. His contributions to his field and his remarkable work with SBS and many others in the industry touched countless lives and brought vital health information to the forefront. Collaborating with Dr. Mosley was an extraordinary privilege for the whole SBS team; his generosity, warmth, and willingness to share his knowledge has made a lasting impact on all of us .
