Is anyone else planning to watch this? I'm lucky enough to have already seen it at a press screening and can really recommend it. Meeting the man himself was really interesting - he is very different in real life compared to his onscreen persona. 

Let me know what you think of the programme!

    I watched it last night and thought it was brilliant, I felt like I learnt a lot.

    It was very interesting. Kudos to him for doing it. My son has Aspergers and we have taught him to try and read people better. We were told it was impossible to do it, but he says when he remembers to look it does help and I think Chris showed you can learn to compensate.

    It was very good, but I'd like to see it from a female point of view now.
