Rare sleep disorder affects one in a million.

Imagine going to sleep and not waking up for several days.... or cooking a meal with no recollection of it afterwards. That's what Stephen Chapman, from Overton, had to face for many years until he was diagnosed with a rare sleep disorder.

Now he's trying to raise awareness and help others suffering from episodes of darkness. Juliette Fletcher has been to meet him and his wife Doreen.
