BEING MUM SEASON
My Child Won't Speak

Tuesday 2 February
10.35-11.25pm ´óÏó´«Ã½ ONE
Danielle has selective mutism
Danielle has selective mutism

Red, Megan and Danielle appear to be three perfectly normal, healthy girls. But there is something puzzling about each of them. They all have selective mutism – a condition which means they can speak but, most of the time, they don't. My Child Won't Speak follows their lives as they attempt to tackle their greatest fear – speaking. The film forms part of ´óÏó´«Ã½ One's Being Mum season and is the first of two season films commissioned and supported by Headroom – the ´óÏó´«Ã½'s three-year mental health and well-being campaign.

In Northamptonshire, most people never hear eight-year-old Red talk. Instead, she communicates using a white board, markers and a cloth. Her grandad, John, has never heard her speak a word and it's breaking his heart.

In Dover, 10-year-old Megan goes cheerleading every Thursday, but she never cheers. The only place she talks freely is at home; at school she never utters a word. Her teacher Mr Lockerby fears that she is virtually invisible in class and it's affecting her education.

Danielle from Caerphilly is 15. She has also been trying to beat selective mutism. A year ago she was still answering questions with a white board, but now she can open her mouth and speak. She's not there yet though – a simple trip to the shops can still render her speechless.

To talk freely like other children, the three girls must confront their personal fears and anxieties about using their voices. My Child Won't Speak joins them on their individual journeys as they start to find a way forward.

´óÏó´«Ã½ Headroom is a cross-platform campaign from ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning to encourage people to look after their mental health and well-being. For further information about selective mutism and support resources, see bbc.co.uk/headroom.

´óÏó´«Ã½ TWO Tuesday 2 February 2010

How Earth Made Us – Wind Ep 3/5

Tuesday 2 February
9.00-10.00pm ´óÏó´«Ã½ TWO

Professor Iain Stewart sets sail on one of the fastest racing boats ever built to explore the story of man's turbulent relationship with the wind, as How Earth Made Us continues.

Travelling to iconic locations, including the Sahara desert, the coast of West Africa and the South Pacific, Iain discovers how people have exploited the power of the wind for thousands of years. It is a force which, at first sight, appears chaotic, but the patterns that lie within the atmosphere are at the heart of some of the greatest turning points in human history.

Iain visits Chinguetti, a small town surrounded by the encroaching Sahara desert. Five hundred years ago this was a vibrant transport hub, and its success was due to global wind patterns, which created the desert. For thousands of years the Sahara was a formidable barrier to communication, but Chinguetti was an oasis town on one of the few routes through the desert. All that now remains of Chinguetti's glory days are some magnificent libraries that have survived the ravages of time. Ironically, the same global pattern of winds that helped Chinguetti thrive also contributed to its downfall. At the end of the 15th century, when an unknown Portuguese sailor visited the coast of West Africa, he began the discovery of ocean wind circulation – the trade winds and westerlies. These would usher in an era of European colonisation. The sailor's name was Christopher Columbus.

The winds have shaped the surface of the planet and the environments in which we live, opening up opportunities for civilisation around the globe. In China, Iain explores how the rise of early Chinese civilisation was based on riches provided by the wind. However in Australia it was a very different story. Iain climbs to the top of Mount Connor in the middle of this continent and witnesses the stark bareness of this landscape. The wind has stripped the land of fertile soil, limiting the options for the ancient aboriginal population.
