although i find it completely halarious i also find it harrowing for these guys. I find that if we don't take it seriously what tourettes sufferers are saying it makes the whole situation for them better. People have become too P.C. correct. P.C. is what makes the whole situation worse for sufferers.

It was a very well made programme i feel. Keith Allen showed no signs of adhering to the rules of political correctness and the guys he was with showed no signs of being offended.
I think sometimes pc segregates people who have a disability or different race or religion and stops integration on the grounds of not being able to be yourself and having open and honest discussions with people.
Of course there are ignorant fools who do offend but as far as I've seen pc means nothing to them anyway.
It's not a time for brushing things under the carpet. It's the time for people to face problems head on and deal with them openly and with respect to all involved.

Hey where do you see that? I know that people get way too easily offended these days and people seem to have to constantly watch what they say if they don't want to anger other people. I think it has gotten out of hand. I just got through watching Jack a s s Number Two - The Unrated Version and I am sure plenty of people would be offended by that movie.
I have OCD which is a kind of brain fart similar to Tourettes. It involves intrusive thoughts and repetitive rituals that are done to relieve anxiety. It's another sort of tic of the brain due to the brain's neurotransmitters malfunctioning. I can empathize with people with Tourette's because they have tics that are not generally possible to hide. People should be more empathetic towards people with Tourette's and any other neurological impairment...

i watched it last night and yes i was lmao , but i did really feel for these guys, as my son is a sufferer of ocd .... and yes i agree the world has gone pc man , people are too afraid to say anything , most people who suffer a disability of some kind would rather somebody be open and honest and ask them about their problems... same goes with race be open and be honest don't brush it all under the carpet !

Interesting observation. It is amazing to me the garbage that people will tolerate in the name of "political correctness" , but a person who is just a little different is treated harshly, made fun of, and mocked. Sad, really.
