The Visual Quiz
A ground-breaking pilot: Can you remember these famous faces from the early days of See Hear?
Deaf popular culture changed forever with the launch of See Hear in 1981 on BBC1. The magazine-style show not only gave viewers content in BSL, but commissioned special editions on subjects deaf viewers and their families were interested in; like new technology, and education. The program also launched a whole generation of careers in BSL television programming, which made it possible, just ten years later, to create an entire game show based around celebrities in the deaf world.
A gameshow made by and for deaf people, in which contestants need to identify a well-known personality from a partial image and guess the subject of an impersonation, among other games.

Brave voices from historically marginalised groups share inspiring and uplifting stories of hope.
In the late 20th Century, people with a physical or a sensory impairment faced daily battles against a society geared to the needs of the able-bodied mainstream. Here we see authentic stories of affected individuals and institutions creating imaginative solutions, paving the way for a socially-inclusive model of disability which would benefit generations to come.
