The new boy on Sex Education and the magician with OCD - a podcast by BBC Radio

Actor George Robinson reveals what it's like to play Isaac, the first disabled character in Netflix's Sex Education.

George became tetraplegic just a few years ago when he broke his neck in a school rugby tackle gone-wrong.

The question is, did he watch the show - full of teenage sex, angst and mishaps - with his parents?

Professional magician Fergus Flanagan first got into tricks when he was 10-years-old - about the same time he realised he was different to everyone else.

He'd started to experience intrusive thoughts relating to hitting or kicking disabled people - something he never acted on and has since gone away.

But it would be another 10 years before he told anyone about it and it was given a name - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - something he's now created a magic show around.

Presented by Kate Monaghan and Simon Minty. A full transcript will be available here soon.
