Chris McCausland: Strictly winner says blind people don't need inspiring
The comedian, who is Strictly's first blind winner, says the public's attitudes need to change.
Brilliant words.
. So proud of the bloke!
, He's right. We don't need inspiring. We know we're capable. The rest of the world, with help from Chris, needs to wake up to the fact that with the right opportunities and access blind people can be fucking brilliant., In list

Delighted that this is how I will be spending the first chunk of next year. An all-time classic story touring to 4 of my favorite theatres in the world. With creative audio description on every performance and I get to play a fascinating, complex disabled character. What a job!
