A NORTH Yorkshire youngster who suffers from a rare condition features in a TV documentary tonight - having already made his debut on Richard and Judy.

Eight-year-old Greg Storey from Pickering appeared on the chat show last Friday to tell about how he copes with Tourettes Syndrome.

Now he is due to feature in a QED documentary for the BBC which will be shown tonight at 9pm.

"He wasn't star-struck at all, mainly because he didn't know who Richard and Judy were," said Greg's dad Paul.

"They asked him about what it was like to live with the condition and he told them."

Tourettes causes the sufferer to have involuntary verbal and physical tics.

While he was in London to film the show, Greg and his dad were given a tour of the BBC's White City studios and Greg was given a special look at the Blue Peter garden.

"He watched rehearsals for the Saturday Show and got to see a couple of famous bands including Mis-teq ," said Paul.

The documentary in which Greg appears tonight is called 'The Boy Can't Help It' and was made by the BBC over the course of three months.

The film also looks at John Davidson, a 30-year-old sufferer who appeared in a similar documentary in the late 1980s.
