Anyone watching? Go Brett! I can't believe he only got diagnosed 4 years ago..

I am. Brett is just lovely. The way his face lights up!

And he has such a way with words when he writes them down!

Tears in my eyes after watching Brett get that job. So great to see that company recognising the skills he can offer them. Great programme.

Very moving. Brett was so eloquent at the end. So pleased for him and he should be very proud.

Both men clearly very talented and intelligent.

That was really moving.

When we were first introduced to Brett I said to my son how sad he looks and could not imagine him smiling ...so it was wonderful to see him in his workplace and a shy smile emerge ...yes very very moving ...wonderful that he was given a chance at last .

What a heartwarming programme. I too had tears in my eyes at Brett's piano playing and his speech at the end.

It just makes me angry that the sort of specialised support that both men received isn't available to all that need it. There was such a clear benefit to their self esteem and mental health in such a short space of time.
