See Hear

Series 29, Episode 31

We meet a deaf woman who says she owes her life to her hearing dog, Boris. Bernadetta Henry suffers with sleep apnoea, a condition which stops her breathing. Boris knows exactly when to rouse her and how to get her to breathe normally again. We revisit the concept of the deaf brain with another chance to see a film that won Best Factual Film prize at last year's Deaffest. We also catch up with actress Sophie Stone. We last met her in 2008 when she was just completing her drama school training. As the first deaf student to graduate from the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art how is life on stage and screen panning out for her?
