Awesome programme this. Really touching. His fellow villagers wanted shot with shit tho (the adults that is) the ignorance was that bad. Really were almost medieval in their outlook and beliefs. Telling that by the end of it the lad was desperate to leave his village and go back to live in the states.

It was more the change in them when he came back as 'normal' tbh. All of a sudden perfectly willing to accept him. I spose in some ways it was a psychologists wet dream-it provided an unadulterated insight into people's fears about things they perceived as being 'different' to themselves.

 

Shows it's human nature the world over I spose and reinforces the absolute importance of education.

The doctor got well sorted for his work though, a chicken and some bananas, the chicken would have been more than enough payment imo

 

I was pissing meself at that, he would have to declare them at customs aswell - what an inconsiderate bunch.
