Adi Dassler Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Just watched the first part of the Keith Allen documentary again on Youtube. For those of you who haven't seen it, it's about the infamous John Dickson (**** Off John to his friends) from Galashiels who suffers from Tourettes Syndrome, and some other kids from a similar background who go to France to visit the hospital where Tourettes was first diagnosed. I'm sure it's a horrible condition to live with but......it's probably the funniest television i've ever seen. 'STELLA ARTOIS' Absolutely high-larious.

Templeton Peck Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Very sad programme for all the people living with the condition. But the bit when he takes the group to, I think Canterbury Cathederal, is priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychocAndy Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Watched" Keith Allen will burn in Hell" yesterday on google video about that nut job family in America that pickets the funerals of servicemen. Pretty good don't know if it's better than Louis thingy because Allen was only there for 2 days. Try and find the one you watched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scallywag Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Just watched and it must be a horrific condition to live with. The highlight for me was the bus driver singing his song at the end.....that must have tested his faith in god. The other thing that struck me is they could easily be confused for a group of Scottish Football fans abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S2H Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've got "John's Not Mad", the 2 documentaries specifically about him, on DVD. Not sure what that says about me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richiehmfc Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've got "John's Not Mad", the 2 documentaries specifically about him, on DVD. Not sure what that says about me. I also have it and tourette de france.....not sure what that says about me either. John's not mad is a great documentary though, although there are funny clips its also an insight into what it is like to be afflicted by something like this.
