Inside Out is the brand name for a number of regional television programmes in England that were broadcast on BBC One. Each series, made by a BBC region, focuses on stories from the local area. Commissioned by BBC One controller Lorraine Heggessey, the programme began on 9 September 2002 and replaced a number of different titles previously used on BBC Two.[1]
The programme ended on 30 March 2020 and was replaced in 2022 by a new programme, We Are England, which has fewer regional editions[2] and focusses on one subject per edition with regional takes on the chosen subject.[3]

Controversy
The East Midlands edition of the show caused controversy in one programme when Ray Gosling claimed to have smothered a former lover who had AIDS. The programme was filmed in December 2009 but only shown in February 2010. A debate over whether the BBC should have told the police before airing the programme followed, with the broadcaster also being accused of promoting assisted suicide.[6] Gosling's claims were later found to be false.[7]
In January 2013, the writer and presenter Chris Geiger investigated a self-styled spiritual healer who claimed to be able to treat cancer using a special diet. Chris Geiger, a cancer survivor himself,[8] used a hidden camera and posed as a client; again this programme provoked widespread debate.[9][10][11]
