The Greenstone Pictures documentary "Charlotte: A Life Without Limbs" is due to screen tomorrow night (Wed Oct 21) at 9.30 on TV3. The documentary is an update on the story of now five-year-old Charlotte Cleverley-Bisman, who created national headlines when she was just a few months old and had all four of her limbs amputated due to meningitis.
Herald on Sunday TV reviewer Deborah Hill Cone gave the doco a very good review at the weekend, but warned that it is a real tear-jerker.
Greenstone are very good at making these heart-warming types of docos, and Charlotte herself is an amazing child, who seems to cope with her difficulties with extraordinary grace and charm. So support Greenstone and TV3 by tuning in and checking it out, and if you want something of a preview, check out this excerpt from a previous Greenstone documentary on Baby Charlotte on NZ On Screen.
