adrian goldberg from bbc 5live investigates joined us earlier. with the condition experience.. i think most people would associate tourette's and with involuntary swearing, but research suggests that only around one in a hundred people with tourette's have that level of vocal tic. you may well have other vocal tics, you make cough and make inappropriate marks, but it's not all about swearing. of course, you may have these physical tics, as well. those can be very painful. research by the charity tourette's action said that as many as eight out of ten people with tourette's had caused themselves pain or physical injury as a result of having to rats. it is a neurological condition, but as you can understand, we saw in the film, it can have serious implications in terms of going for a job, in terms of your social life, and so on and so forth. it can feed into mental health disorders. as many as one in three people have considered suicide and self harm. how difficult or easy is it to diagnose? are there problems with diagnosis? in some cases, you're talking about diagnoses taking

adrian goldberg joins us now. just tell us how it was meant to work and what has happened.y faced a lot of criticism that it was not taking the problem of problem gamblers seriously enough to last april, there was a programme created called gamstop fast—food stop you from betting if you signed up stop you from betting if you signed up to this system and all the major gambling companies online. you getting with them however as bradford, in a state to him earlier and his dad, he got a really serious gambling problem and he found he was able to register, self exclude but create a new account changing in the minor details in your line of his address, register with another online gambling company and successfully place a bet so self exclusion for him simply did not work. i know he's like him earlier. there are some of his reaction now. it's important to say the scheme has not fully launched yet, it is nine months old but it is shambolic to mean that you can get onto a scheme like this that is supposed to help people who are vulnerable but it is not doing itsjob. it is like a dru

adrian goldberg joins us now. first of all, tell us what this scheme is supposed to do?t up last april by an independent charity funded by the bookmakers, called gamstop. there was lots of criticism that the industry was not taking the issue of problem gamblers seriously enough. there is something like 2 million people who either have a gambling addiction or at risk of coming addicted. so they set up an industrywide scheme, that is the idea, where you can go online, put your name and details into a register, and thereafter, you will be unable to access any online gambling sites. but we went online, ironically with the son of a gambling addict, who i think you are going to be speaking to later, and the son of the addict was obviously very concerned about the impact of the gambling industry. simply by changing a very few details, maybe a letter here or a digit year in the name, he was able to go on, even though he had previously self excluded from online betting. he was able to go on and gamble tens of pounds. but you could bet thousands of pounds, via online casinos. now,
