Paddy and Christine McGuinness: Our Family and Autism

Wednesday, BBC1 HD, 9pm

Four years ago, TV presenter Paddy McGuinness and his wife Christine were told their twin children, Penelope and Leo, were autistic. Last year, their youngest daughter, Felicity, was also diagnosed with autism.

Now, in a new documentary, the couple share their experiences of the challenges they face, meeting other parents and paediatricians to learn more about the condition, and discover what the future may hold for their family.
