After remembering what total boring flat ***** I thought stephen frys programme came across as the first time i watched it, I remember watching the illustrated mum, with michele collins as a bipolar mum. I loved that drama and have watched it a couple of times since. I think it did well in a short period of time to put across some difficult aspects of the illness with respect and consideration for bps. Stephen Frys trying to normalise the illness comes across exactly how everyone who doesnt understand the illness sees it. ie whats the big deal!!! Why couldnt he have got real and shown the pain, anquish, mania, etc we go through daily.............
