Following on from the first series of Vicky McClure's Our Dementia Choir, the Nottingham actress has continued her stellar work to raise awareness and funds for battling the disease which impacts one in six people over 80. However, an increasing number of younger people are also developing dementia, which can manifest itself differently in the non-elderly.
The BBC documentary re-introduces familiar faces from the first series, including Mick Bonser, who was diagnosed with dementia in 2018 at just 51 years old.
"People will notice a massive change in Mick," McClure said and added that the follow-up will be "quite difficult to watch for some people". Mike is one very visible case amongst tens of thousands every year, which sees those previously classed as non high-risk, diagnosed.
