Chris Packham: Asperger's And Me

back to projects
Synopsis

For most of his life, broadcaster and naturalist Chris Packham didn’t tell anyone about the one thing that in many ways has defined his entire existence. Chris is autistic – he has Asperger’s Syndrome, which means he struggles in social situations, has difficulty with human relationships, and is, by his own admission, ‘a little bit weird’.

But what if there was a way of taking away these autistic traits? Would Chris ever choose to be ‘normal’?
