An Open Door programme made by Bernard Goodsall

'Most of us suffer from shyness in some way or other - it's the most common, yet least noticed, problem of our daily life.
It's an unhappy condition that keeps people from realising their full potential, at work, in love, at home and in everyday situations.'
Bernard Goodsall, a self-confessed shy person, holds up a mirror and discovers that anyone can close the door on shyness and lead a more exciting and rewarding life.
