Documentary series uncovering the lives of deaf people around the country.

In this episode, we visit Clark and Eliza in Scotland, both of whom are deafblind. We meet them as they prepare for their wedding day with the help of their faithful communication guides.

John is a deaf coach driver who was bullied as a child. Buses offered him an escape from his childhood tormentors - and as an adult, he has become a coach driver himself. We follow him on a day trip to Essex - will they make it there and back in one piece?

And Jamie is a young, unassuming deaf man by day. But at night he transforms himself into Vikki, a fiery redhead. As Jamie gets ready for a night out in Belfast, we learn about the dark trauma of his past. Show less
