Watched this today and it got very dusty in the room.

What's it on?

I was at a dinner last year where he was raising funds for the whole motor neurone thing. Very very impressive man, had everyone in the room in stitches whilst delivering a very important but serious message. I'll be tuning in defo.

Very moving programme.

Watched a very good friend go with this horrible disease, went from a healthy young man to bed bound in under two years, died at 35 leaving a wife and children, horrible way to go for all of them.

It's my main charity now, hopefully one day a cure will come.
