[VIDEO] Ex-BBC Royal Correspondent Inhales Cannabis On Screen!

2^min

Jennie Bond, the BBC’s ex-royal correspondent deeply inhaled cannabis on Channel 4 documentary as part of a TV experiment looking into the effects of types of the drug on the brain.

In another scene, Jennie is seen giggling and talking about how much she loves eating grapes after experimenting with hash.

On Sunday, experts and critics accused Channel 4 of turning Drugs Live: Cannabis On Trial into little more than a stunt designed to boost ratings and glamorize the Class B drug.

The program sees 22 volunteers including Jennie Bond, former Tory MP Matthew Parris and presenter Jon Snow take two sorts of cannabis – hash and high-strength skunk – plus a placebo.

Each has tests including a brain scan, while changes to their mood, emotions and memories are closely monitored.

Jennie, a 64-year-old mother, said she didn't like the experience of taking cannabis but “certainly didn't hate it” while Mr Snow said smoking the more potent cannabis “outstripped anything” he had previously experienced.
