Christine McGuinness: Why first dates can be a sensory nightmare

Presenter and model, Christine McGuinness, has thrown herself into dating for the first time since discovering she is neurodivergent. She reveals to Access All some of her autistic dating tips and tricks and talks about her new BBC podcast, Situationships. She also chats about campaigning for more accessible playgrounds for disabled and neurodiverse kids. When he heard we were chatting about dating, BBC journalist, Alex Taylor, rolled by. He recently declared on his social media that he's re-launching on the apps. He thinks they can really help disabled people get out there but admits juggling dates and carers can result in some very awkward situations. Plus Emma Tracey and Paul Carter debunk the rumour going around that singer Stevie Wonder, who recently gigged in the UK, isn't really blind, and try to decide whether he's the most famous disabled person in the world right now. This is a fun episode, but if you're Alex's mum, this one is not for you!
