The Mum Who Got Tourette's (2020x21)

Uitzenddatum: Apr 09, 2020

Elizabeth is a typical suburban housewife and mother of three with one big difference - without warning, shortly after her 40th birthday, she developed Tourette's syndrome - a neurological condition that causes involuntary tics, some of them offensive. This one-off documentary follows Elizabeth and her family over the course of a busy summer, including a holiday in Cornwall, GCSE results and meeting her son's new girlfriend - experiences amplified by the unexpected impact of Elizabeth's condition.
