See Hear - Series 30 - Episode 24

See Hear joins in the celebrations marking the 175th anniversary of the oldest constituted Deaf society in the world, Deaf Action in Scotland. John Hay has compiled a booklet chronicling the society's history. We join him in Edinburgh to find out more. We join deaf visitors on a trip to St Paul's Cathedral. What does one of the most iconic tourist attractions in the capital have to offer the deaf visitor? Remark, a production company, devised the media-guide that has recently become available for BSL users at St Paul's. We go behind-the-scenes with them to find out what preparation goes into the production of the guides. Plus we talk to performer Rainer Hersch. In 1997, after contracting a virus, he went suddenly and profoundly deaf in one ear. This summer See Hear met up with him at the Edinburgh Festival.
