Ellie Simmonds: 'Who actually am I?'

Paralympian and former Strictly contestant Ellie Simmonds speaks to Emma Tracey about having been given up by her mother, in part, due to concern at her having achondroplasia - a condition which leads to dwarfism. A complicated situation, Ellie holds no anger towards her for the decision. She was soon adopted and it was through the people she thinks of as her parents that she got into swimming and the life she loves. Find out what she discovered about herself when she met her birth mum recently. And rolling round social media right now is a big debate about the title of comedian Rosie Jones new documentary. It's caused controversy because the title contains the R-word, a much disliked word amongst many disabled people. Rosie, however, argues that it helps people to understand what a gut-punch the word is by front-loading her programme it in this way. Debating it is Rachel Charlton-Dailey, Harry Roche and Mik Scarlet. Recorded and mixed by Dave O'Neill, produced by Emma Tracey, Natasha Fernandes and Beth Rose, editor is Damon Rose, exec'ed by Jonathan Aspinwall. The presenter was Emma Tracey.
