The Deaf and Dumb Film: Dumb Neighbour

In this first produced mini-episode, James has put toast under the grill and forgotten about it. We also introduce the concept of the UK hospital service not being very deaf aware (by them insisting that deaf people call up to confirm that interpreters are needed). Also introduces the neighbour, Sam, who is completely ignorant regarding deafness.
