Where the public sets the agenda
Talking to the Wall
Graham and Linda, and Linda and Wayne are two couples with ordinary ambitions: they want to get married and live together. But they are classed as 'mentally handicapped' and attend an Adult Training
Centre, learning the skills of everyday life.
Their plans to lead a life of their own are forever thwarted by rules and regulations they find forced upon them.
'I wouldn't talk to them social workers at all because talking to them is like talking to a brush, its like talking to the wall'
Photography CHRIS SEAGER Producer PAUL PIERROT
Made at the request of LINDA EVANS by the COMMUNITY PROGRAMME UNIT
