In this week's episode, Nik Kendrew is joined by GP Dr Osman Bhatti to discuss a newspaper story that has caught his eye- are some newspapers making medical mountains out of molehills to generate clickbait?
We look at a week of BBC Breakfast in our daytime TV section.
Our main discussion is about " Me, my brother and our balls" , a documentary currently on BBC iPlayer tackling the rarely discussed issue of male infertility.
