About this work

Description

Short video looking at the work of Home Office Forensic Pathologist Professor Guy Rutty. He explains his role and offers a simplified breakdown of his job: discovering who has died, how they died, when they died and where they died. His wife, Jane Rutty, gives her version of life married to a Forensic Scientist. There are brief scenes of Rutty carrying out a physical examination on a body in a lab. Rutty also gets the opportunity to travel abroad with his work, and is seen on a trip to the Falkland Islands, where he investigates a sudden death at Mount Pleasant Military Facility. He treats the death as if it was a homicide, in order to instruct the students there.
