No Triumph, No Tragedy

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

BBC disability affairs correspondent Peter White talks to DrTom Shakespeare, a sociologist with a hereditary condition that restricts his growth - he is only four feet tall. His father had the same condition, and he has full knowledge of the likely consequences for his two children. White asks Dr Shakespeare why, considering his painful adolescence and insecurity with women, he was prepared to pass on the same legacy to his Children. Producer Sue Mitchell. Repeated at 9.30pm
