"Documentary exploring Asperger's Syndrome, examining whether scientists and artists including Isaac Newton and Andy Warhol displayed symptoms of the condition, which has some been associated with eccentric behaviour. The programme also looks at whether fairy tales such as Hans Christian Andersen's The Ugly Duckling are allegories about living with the syndrome."

It looks interesting and pretty open minded. They stream from their site after shows have been shown on TV so I can link it if anyone is interested.

Is that available to people worldwide or only to people using Irish ISPs? If so, it might be better if you could download it somehow and up it somewhere.

Just done some information and it's a British documentary that aired on the Government-run Teachers TV channel in the UK nearly four years ago. There was a video stream of this documentary available on the Teachers' TV site in the UK but as the station has been closed down this is no longer available.
