Scarlett Moffatt discusses her experience with tics and Tourette's ahead of documentary

Scarlett Moffatt discussed her experience with tics and Tourette's ahead of her new documentary on the topic.

The Gogglebox star joined This Morning to discuss her upcoming documentary - Britain's Tourette's Mystery: Scarlett Moffatt Investigates - which takes a personal look at those suffering from tics and Tourette's syndrome. Scarlett said the show is near to her heart as she too experienced extreme ticks from a young age and have re-emerged since lockdown.

She said: "I had ticks when I was younger so when I was 11 I had facial tics, especially with my eyes then they just went on their own. I remember how lonely I felt at the time and during lockdown, I kept getting articles saying the rise in tics in teenagers was going crazy.
