Thanks for that info.

I fucking hated this program... I mean, well done Alex for conducting an incredibly difficult auchestra at 16 when your partially deaf, but this documentry wouldn't of been made if he didn't have CF.. Ok, all of the treatment and medical care needed to keep him as healthy as possible is time consuming, but in no way to having Cystic Fibrosis reduce your ability to conduct an auchestra. The kid is just fucking playing on it! I have CF, but I'd rather not have it then boast about it on TV!

I watched this full documentary yesterday, it's so sad, the poor boy. He has an amazing personality, he's cute, funny and talented and even though he's like this, he still lives life to the fullest.

For anyone that would like to see the full documentary in the UK, it is being repeated on Christmas Day 2008 (Channel 4) at 6.15pm.

Alex Stobbs is currently trying to raise money to put on a performance of Bach's Matthew Passion in the Cadogan Hall, London in April 2009. It is hoped that it will raise awareness for Cystic Fibrosis.

Everyone should look up a guitarist called JASON BECKER

[cocopops314]

Is there any way you can upload the whole programme, in 2 bits or something? would be great.

[edders05]

There is probably going to be an official DVD sold to raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis trust.
