wanted: a very personal assistant

Did anyone watch this? I found the first episode kind of heartbreaking with Michael being paralysed at only 23. The comedian one is actually really funny. The asian woman was a bit too bossy and controlling. I found it quite inspiring that they don't moan and whinge.

I watched bits of it, still on Iplayer for anyone that is interested. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b063qmzq

I couldn't do the job to be honest, it is a huge responsibility and very intimate. Really highlights what a huge task it is to assist someone with a disability and makes you wonder why generally carers are so badly paid and trained in this country.
