I remember the first one. It was a documentary about how his foster father (I think) built a sort of wheelchair with a 'forklift' at the front end so the lad could move and raise him self (so he could sit at table fo instance). I seem to remember there was a follow up about a year later showing how the lad had improved with his new mobility and I think his father was on about Mk4 of the wheelchair...but I can't remember his name!!!


First one - "On Giants' Shoulders".
Thats it!!
