My Wife and I were in stitches until the showed how depressing it was for them. It certainly makes you think. It was interesting how they would set each other off.

Funniest bit. Citizens advice woman said "Imagine you are standing in a beautiful green field..."

Tourettes John "I'm knee deep in cow-pat"

This could have been clever editing, but when he was telling the dog to cross the road when there was cars coming, and it just sat there looking at him as if to say "yeah right!".

Heh, I loved it when his mate said, "Aww, he'll find someone eventually, to look after him and understand him tick ANOTHER GAY MAN"

I found it incredible how I could understand exactly where their ticks come from during normal conversation. It's the things 'normal' people think but (normally) know not to say. "fk off nosey" biggrin

Very sad in parts, but I couldn't help laughing at the bloke who shouted "Ginger fanny!" during the counselling session and the same bloke shouting, "I'M A CHICKEN censoredR!" in the middle of a street.

It was hilarious right up to the moment when the bloke said his tourettes started when he was 34! yikes I stopped laughing quite quickly after that.

I can remember the first program, made in 1988 about John. My mate and I found it hilarious at the time, and the situation can still be very funny at times.

However, listening to John on the prog last night it is clear that it has seriously blighted his life in a way that is anything but funny. Unable to hold down a serious relationship and clearly virtually abandoned by his family I ended up feeling quite guilty about laughing at the funny bits.

Thankfully society has moved on a bit in dealing with the problem.

That greg kids pretty funny with his ticks. They don't seem to be swear words.
"Ready steady cook!" was hilarious.

He's lucky in a way.

It was absolute class! I was scared to laugh at first but at some points you just have to! Its sad to see the annoyance in the mans face as a kid as he walked down the library shouting stuff and trying not too whilst everyone looked at him.
