I was kinda half-watching, so this is probably somewhat inaccurate, (was
reading the new 'David Weber' stuff) but it was the story of the
development of breast implants, the doctors and scientists who invented
them, and the social dynamics and stuff invloved in their acceptance.
(Doctors discussing implants among themselves, a couple of mock talkshows
where women were talking about why they were getting them, the early idea
that only strippers and prostitutes waould want the implants.)
