Leading to her eye being removed, Toni discovered her cancer was terminal in 2020 and made the decision to continue to raise awareness of the disease, even after death.Before her passing, Toni not only agreed to donate her body to medical science but also chose to give consent for it to be on public display, becoming the first person in the UK to do so.

"In this never-before-seen medical investigation, the film follows Professor Claire Smith, Head of Anatomy at Brighton and Sussex Medical School, and her team as they dissect Toni’s body and chart the course of the disease from the initial diagnosis to her death four years later," the Channel 4 synopsis reads.
