[TV] The A Word

[1066familyman]

I can't remember the last time I watched a drama series. The genre isn't really my thing.

However, with time on my hands at the mo, I discovered this series whilst browsing the iplayer. Watched the first programme and got myself hooked. Now started on series two.

I realise I'm very late to this party, but I'd recommend it to anyone who missed it and wants a series to get stuck into

It's a brilliant, programme, has a very good sound track, and as someone who parents an autistic child, is very true to life, with some added spice for drama purposes.

I haven't watched it yet but have heard it's good from a couple of friends. I'm a single parent and my youngest son is autistic so it's a relatable subject matter. I've really enjoyed the Good Doctor staring Freddie Highmore as a trainee surgeon with autism. IMO his portrayal is very good, can see a lot of traits that his character has in my son.

Yeah, the 'added spice' does sometimes make me wonder if I'm really a closet Eastenders fan after all

I work with some adults on the spectrum and so the main subject matter is primarily what drew me in to be honest. A good watch so far and taking me on a proper emotional rollercoaster.

A really good series and the actor who plays the boy is amazing.
