Ημερομηνία προβολής: Μαρ 29, 2011

Katie's charity is about to launch and Simon Cowell has agreed to be the patron. The pressure is on Katie to get the launch right. In Bristol, Katie meets 16-year-old Will, who's struggling to come to terms with the 40% burns he received after a barbecue got out of control. He was on the critical list for two weeks, has already had four skin grafts and is facing months of intensive physiotherapy to regain full use of his arm. But he's finding it hard to cope with the way he looks and the restrictions his injuries place upon him. And he's refusing to wear the pressure suit that will help to reduce his scarring. Will's mum hopes that Katie will be able to inspire him to persevere. And Katie also meets 24-year-old Emily who suffered 70% burns in a house fire when she was just seven and warns Katie that life with scars is not as easy as she may think. Since graduating with a law degree, Emily has been unable to get a job, despite hundreds of applications, and believes that people's inability to get past her disfigurement is a major issue. And can Katie overcome her fears to take centre stage launching her charity?
