Scott: “May I just very quickly say, Chris Packham is an exceptional broadcaster and I think he's done more for neurodivergent awareness than I think he has done for environmental awareness now.”
Naga: “Oh, I disagree with that.”
Scott: “No, I just think…”
Naga: “I think he's doing both.”
Scott: “He's doing both brilliantly, but I think in of his openness, he's really made more people, I think…..”
Naga: “And that is the way that TV works now and actually lots of things work when you have a high profile and you have your own experience of the subject you're doing.
“I think good and bad sometimes, high-profile people are being asked to do that to bring awareness to the subject and I think sometimes actually that's a shame because there are so many people out there and who could do a good job but not getting the opportunity to say that until you are someone with a high-profile who can then offer their experience and add it to a campaign or a raising awareness.”
Hayley: “What I liked about this was that Packham talked about his experience at the beginning, and then it was all about the other people. Henry was able to tell him things that he hadn't even spoken to his own family about. I thought that was incredible.”
Naga: “For me, one of the most powerful bits was how his family responded.
“Must watch for you Scott?”
Scott: “Must watch for me.”
Hayley: “Not for me, I knew everything, but it should be seen by people. So that's a personal not-a-must-watch.”
Naga: “Yeah, I'm with Hayley on this one, but absolutely think it's important.”
Inside Our ADHD Minds is available to watch on BBC iPlayer, along with Chris Packham’s other series: Inside Our Dyslexic Minds and existing series Inside Our Autistic Minds.
