I forgot to mention that Justin Fletcher should be knighted and worshipped by all. Not only does he make disabilities and sign language acceptable and accessible by small children, but he entertains brilliantly also. For "Justin Fletcher Sings Nursery Rhymes" I shall love him forever.
From wiki:
3575 people signed a petition calling on the current Prime Minister, Gordon Brown to give Justin an OBE.
The petition states: “Justin Fletcher is a communication genius. He both entertains and educates our children and does this with intelligence and panache without patronising. Programmes like Something Special can only help bridge the gap that sometimes sadly appears between able and not so able bodied people in our society and help banish the unkindness that disabled people sometimes face due to ignorance.”
The public were asked to vote on the Prime Minister's website, and the petition deadline passed on September 30 2007.
He was appointed an MBE in the 2008 Birthday Honours for services to "children's broadcasting and the voluntary sector".
