On this month's talk show from Ouch: Tilley Milburn had a late diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome which meant she received assistance later than was helpful, and found herself living in a care home. She talks about the comic she has created for disability art group Heart and Soul, her performances and how she sometimes speaks to the world via her toy pig Del.James Leadbitter, also known as artist The Vacuum Cleaner, has struggled with his mental health over time. He returns to the programme to talk about the outcome of the Madlove project where he and collaborator Hannah Hull asked people to send in ideas to help them create the most ideal and healthy psychiatric ward. In a wide-ranging discussion James also talks about having experienced the controversial practice of face-down restraint.
