Actor and presenter Adam Pearson, who suffers with the rare condition neurofibromatosis, journeyed across America to explore the world of freak shows for a new BBC3 documentary.
He joins us on the sofa to regale tales of meeting people who use their medical conditions to educate, entertain and make money, and to explain how his opinion on exploitive side shows has changed after meeting these extraordinary people.
