Channel 4 Tuesdays from 13 May at 10pm

In a world where the lottery of nature defines your height, size and features, individuals can become celebrities based simply on how they look. But is being staggeringly tall or amazingly small a curse or a gift? What is everyday life like when you look extraordinary? And who is behind the images of these people circulating on the internet and in the media?

Broadcaster Mark Dolan sets off on a global quest to learn the truth about these individuals' lives. His exploration not only uncovers some incredible stories, but becomes a personal journey for Mark as his own preconceptions are challenged at every turn.
