Would love to see it - what is the name of the program?
I can't access the BBC website because I'm not in the UK, but maybe there's another way! x

Wow, I'm not in the UK so I can't see it either, but it looks like it's actually written from the perspective of the autistic kids? That's awesome. (Assuming they actually asked the kids what they wanted to say, that is.)

I love when I see anything that comes from the perspective of the autist rather than the perspective of the parent.
