Inside Our Autistic Minds
Channel: BBC Earth (DStv 184)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Documentary Series
Since sharing his own autism diagnosis with the world, Chris Packham has been flooded with letters and emails from other autistic people, frustrated that the people in their lives, their friends, families and co-workers, don't understand them.
In this two-part documentary, Chris helps autistic people illustrate how their minds work, helping them connect with their friends and family in a new, more authentic way.
By teaming up with top film-makers, graphic designers, animators and musicians, Chris helps a group of autistic people create short films to reveal to their family and friends how they're truly feeling inside – what's really going on in their autistic minds.
He helps an autistic comedian reveal to her mum what's really going on inside her head, gives a non-speaking autistic man the chance to take his message to the world and visits the only state school in the country exclusively for autistic girls.
Chris meets Anton, a teaching assistant and trance DJ with a deep love of Middlesbrough FC, and Ethan, a 19-year-old student and aspiring rapper from Essex.
He helps them make films to reveal to their friends and classmates how Anton feels about change and Ethan about hypersensitivity to noise.
Chris also meets Dr Luke Beardon, an expert in autistic hypersensitivity, and Dr Punit Shah, who helps him to understand both Anton's restrictive and repetitive behaviours and Chris's own need for order in his life.
