By Michael Symmons Roberts Conor volunteers to test a new medical sonic scanner which records the sounds inside the body. From this recording an analysis of the patients health is drawn. The Goldberg Scanner could revolutionise medical science. No-one knows what effect this scanner has on human health. Conor finds himself a prisoner in a secure research facility, brought back day after day to spend another hour in this massive dark metal tunnel. He gradually realises that he's being mapped, being searched so deeply that he feels he's losing his identity and being taken over by a Doppelganger released when he enters the scanner. Conor.....Graeme Hawley Jen.....Gillian Kearney Doppelganger.....Clive Russell Margaret.....Sue Jenkins Matthew.....Malcolm Raeburn With specially composed music by John Harle Directed in Manchester by Susan Roberts.
