Please consider what this will do to the central nervous system.

Well, if I may add my 2 pence worth, I think this is all just typical Craig, darling. Thoughtless, really. Part of my disability is nerve damage which occasionaly makes me twitch or jump, but I wasn't offended on behalf of myself.
I was however offended that Craig should be so harsh to a nice, gentle man who is my Dad's age, who frankly at 74 is doing really well, especially in his first week. I know what Craig's like, but I did think that was a thoughtless and quite cruel thing to say. Not because I have neurological damage though. ![]() |

Interesting thread. I haven't got any personal experience of nerve-related conditions, so I can't comment from that perspective. Seems to me it was more a case of 'Craig being Craig'. Not for the first time it wasn't so much what he said, but the way that he said it.
He needs to reset his 'disdain-ometer' asap - at this rate it'll be off the scale before we get to Movie Week! |

My Dad died of Motor Neurone Disease, at about Jonny's age.
Craig's remark brought back a bit of the sadness, during a show which I watch for a bit of lighthearted fun. It's not what I expect of Craig, I think he must have said it without thinking. We know Jonny isn't going to be as physically controlled as he would have been at 40, we don't really need it spelling out for us and illustrating with an example of something other than being in your 70s that could cause you to be a bit unsteady. |

Right at the heart of it, to my mind. It made me gasp. And I really didn't mean to be patronising to people with Central Nervous System disorders.
PS is your name rhyming slang??? ![]()
