Colin Firth in the King's Speech
Stammering is a funny old thing. While now it would be generously grouped under the ‘disability’ umbrella, for a long time many saw it as a sign of stupidity, and a funny trait that got a cheap laugh. But since the King’s Speech came out in January things have seemingly got better (despite that stupid Comic Relief sketch, which undid all its good work).
So I went to find out more about stammering, and what can be done to help those who lives are fundamentally affected by it.

Really lovely piece George. The content was great, but most of all I think you hit the pace and the personal angle so well.
Thanks for your kind words Dave. Much appreciated.
