    Across East Asia an extremely strict formula for beauty is emerging: pale skin, big eyes and a razor-sharp v-shaped jawline. Some people say it's to look ‘more Western', but is that true?

  • S01E03 Bodies

    • October 8, 2020
    • BBC Three

    Food can often be a way for British East Asians to communicate with their family and heritage, but the pressure to lose weight often exists at odds with this. Elaine meets up with Singaporean pop star Ming Bridges and comedian Evelyn Mok, to discuss this strained and often unhealthy relationship with food. How can a few leaves of cabbage and a handful of nuts make up a whole day's food? And why has watching videos of other people gorging on food online become so popular?
