Kilroy is such an obnoxious jerk. He keeps interrupting the guests and trying to get his own agenda in on it when they tried explaining their professional positions or their personal experience (like that woman in the end). We never got to hear what the virus that the neurologist early on was going to say was the most commonly associated with ME! No wonder he ended up tripping over his tongue regarding Muslims in the Express before he went to UKIP.

The psychiatrist from 7:24 with the "I couldnt care less what is, I just treat it" attitude is Peter White.

From a Hummingbirds Guide 2007, "Peter White is one of the chief medical officers for insurance company Swiss Re."

Hello again luminescentfeeling. I don't know what CBT/GE is. Would you enlighten? Another vaguely related topic: In this age of political correctness it seems strange that to discriminate against a disability, and race, sexuality and similar is considered unacceptable but with M.E. it's a free for all, open to abuse from any bigot.
