We need more characters like Harry


I love how he just stops the whole stereotype of "you are disabled but can walk" we need to see more disabled characters who can both walk, work and bonus points for being young but yet still be disabled. I get told all the time how can I be disabled if I can walk and also being told I'm too young to be using a walker. Thanks trollied for making my day and making me feel not so alone.

It's interesting you say that as I knew some autistic people who used autism as an excuse not to work and something to fall back on when they could do a lot of stuff it was just easier not to because they had an excuse. This actor appears to have embraced his disability using it as part of his act (e.g. his britain's got talent audition) but also doesn't let it hold him back and pushes himself
