TV presenter Chris Packham, who is known for presenting the BBC show Springwatch, has recently released a very moving documentary about autism. The documentary, Inside Our Autistic Minds, moved many viewers and Chris himself to tears when he met Radio 2 DJ, Ken Bruce's autistic son Murray.
In the two-part series Chris, who was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome in 2015, meets other autistic people and helps them create short films to reveal to their family and friends what’s really going on inside their minds. The first episode saw Chris meet radio legend Ken Bruce's son Murray, who had no real form of communication until he was nine years old. The 20-year-old, who lives in Oxfordshire, communicates by typing on a tablet.
Talking on Ken's BBC Two radio show today, February 17, Chris shared how he and Murray had an amazing moment after the documentary was filmed. To thank Chris for his help sharing his story Murray simply gave Chris the biggest hug, which Chris described as amazing.
