The Anxiety Disorders Residential Unit at the Bethlem Royal Hospital was featured in this episode of Bedlam on Channel 4 in 2013. This is a fly on the wall documentary that follows the journey of some of the residents with OCD.
This is the world's oldest psychiatric institution used to be known as Bedlam, a place where you used to hide those who were considered mad. It is now known as the South London and Maudsley NHS Hospital and treats 50,000 patients a year. Staff and patients opened their doors to show what Bedlam is like today. Professor David Veale is Consultant Psychiatrist in cognitive behavioural therapies at the unit.
