Lost and Found: The voice box
Marie McCreadie was 13 when she suddenly lost her voice. She was accused of making it up, that the devil was at work in her 鈥� but the truth was even stranger.
A young girl's life is sent into a spiral when she finds her voice has gone.
Marie McCreadie was 13 when she lost her ability to speak. She couldn't make a sound for over a decade. She was accused of making it up, that the devil was at work in her 鈥� but the truth was even stranger. She spoke to Outlook's Andrea Kennedy in 2019.
In 2018, Mira Feticu received an anonymous letter with instructions on how to find a stolen Picasso, buried in a Romanian forest. She found the spot, but a shock was in store. This interview was first broadcast in 2020.
