About this listen
In this episode of Unbelievable Britain, Victoria Derbyshire sits down with Ryan Stevens to explore the reality of living with Tourette’s. From physical tics that have caused serious injury to the invisible toll of suppressing emotion, he shares what it’s really like when your body feels out of your control.
He speaks about tic attacks that surge through his body, the pressure to stay “level” to prevent episodes, and the quiet challenge of feeling like a burden to the people he loves. He also reflects on representation, public misunderstanding, and why Tourette’s looks different for everyone.
Victoria Derbyshire has spent decades as one of the UK's most trusted journalists, breaking major stories and leading some of the most powerful interviews on radio and television. Now with Unbelievable Britain, she'll prove the most unbelievable stories aren’t fiction… they’re happening right here. Extraordinary people with stories that reveal who we really are as a nation, surprising, inspiring, and sometimes hard to believe.
