"I wish you could experience it so you would really understand"

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder has often been summed up as a person being extremely tidy, or having a quirk where they repeat the same action multiple times.

But for people living with the anxiety disorder, it can be crippling.

On today's episode of The Quicky we hear from someone with lived experience of OCD and also an expert to help us understand more about an often overlooked condition.

You’d be forgiven for thinking Harry & Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, were back in the royal fold, given their recent tour of Nigeria.

But alas, they’re still out of favour with the current working royals.

But wasn’t this hybrid working model of royal-but-not-fully-royal life what the Sussex's suggested to the Queen back when they were trying to move out of the family fold? Have they shown up the struggling firm by exposing how it could have been for them had they kept the couple on the books?

The Quicky team looks into whether this Invictus Games tour of the African nation, is a political manoeuvre or a diversion tactic.
