Johns Not Mad (DVD)

Filmed as a QED documentary by the BBC, John's Not Mad made a huge impact on the nation and brought the relatively unknown condition of Tourette Syndrome into the public domain. The documentary follows John Davidson, a 15 year old schoolboy from Galashiels who suffers from the most severe form of this complex neurological disorder. This fascinating and inspiring film explores the way in which John, his family and the local community deal with his extreme condition. This DVD also contains footage from the 2002 follow-up BBC documentary 'The Boy Can't Help It' featuring John, now aged 31, as he talks about how much impact the original documentary has had on his life. John's charity, 'Tourette Scotland', will be receiving a donation from every copy sold to continue helping and advising families of Tourette sufferers.
