"The naturalist travels the globe to uncover the life-saving properties of reptile venom as an increasing number of creatures come under the microscope in the quest to find cures and preventative medicines for a range of human ailments. From the copperhead snake in northern Florida to the eastern brown in Australia, he discovers how the chemicals contained in their venom can help cure life-threatening conditions if harnessed in the right way"

Wonder if there'll be anything on Gilas! (I believe the venom has a chemical that can help with people suffering for being diabetic? Anyone got a link?)

I'll be watching!

I thought it was an interesting watch too. A bit different from the usual Snake related programmes.
