Being Frank: The Frank Gardner Story

4 members

The BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner explores what it is like to suddenly become disabled, something he experienced himself 16 years ago after being shot by Al-Qaeda gunmen in Saudi Arabia. The bullets damaged his spinal nerves, leaving him partly paralysed and using a wheelchair ever since. In this deeply personal film, he talks candidly about the effects his injuries have had on his life, work, relationships and the way he views himself. And he speaks to others, to explore how they have responded to sudden life-changing injuries.
