Ìý German Doping Wednesday 13 August 2003 Ìý
Denise Lewis, the current Olympic gold medallist - entered her first heptathlon for 3 years last month, came second and secured her entry into the World Championships in Paris.

One of the men instrumental in her successful comeback is her new trainer Dr Ekkart Arbeit. But their relationship is controversial. He was involved in a doping programme for athletes in the former East Germany and it's now been found that women in particular have suffered long term ill effects from the drugs they were given to enhance performance. Lucy Frears met some of them in Berlin.
Daily Telegraph sports journalist Sue Mott, who broke the Ekkart Arbeit story in the British press and Tom McNab, former athlete and Olympic coach join Jenni to discuss the intense relationship between the male coach and the female athlete.
