His positive attitude is just phenomenal! I enjoy reading the reports and comments from the public, praising and encouraging Rose, who are amazed and equally impressed a young Deaf woman can dance in such a phenomenal way whilst being unable to hear the music, and score a fabulous 40!Įqually praise goes to Giovanni for being a kind considerate man, who incorporates Rose’s Deafness and language into his dance choreography and seems so accepting and supportive of Rose. I hope this is just the beginning of good things to come.Īs a result of watching Rose and Giovanni, I follow them on social media and read articles from the Daily Mail for instance.

I guess, never did I think we would view such a significant act on national television in my lifetime. To this day, I’m unable to express the emotions I felt at that time. Whilst watching the first programme with Rose and Giovanni, seeing the hearing dancers, celebrities, presenters and judges try and add a few signs to their comments as well as observing the audience applauding the deaf way, put a huge lump in my throat and brought tears to my eyes. I am pleased to say Rose and Giovanni get all my three votes! Deaf children have some amazing role models to admire and take inspiration from, which we all know is so important.Īlong with millions of others in the Deaf Community and the world, I sit down every Saturday/Sunday evening to watch Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice’s performance on Strictly.
GIOVANNI MIND YOUR LANGUAGE TV
I cannot remember a time when the Deaf Community have been able to tune into the TV and see such a vast range of Deaf talent and role models. Of course we must not forget Rose Ayling-Ellis in Eastenders and Strictly Come Dancing!

Not only is the BBC News becoming more inclusive and incorporating Deaf issues in their bulletins, Deaf actors such as Sophie Stone, Gabriella Leon, Rhiannon Jones have starred in programmes such as Casualty, Doctor Who and Silent witness. Julian Peedle-Calloo, (See Hear) Charlie Swinbourne and Liam O’Dell (Limping Chicken) doing their individual pieces on the BBC News is refreshing and enlightening, not forgetting Katie Rowley’s clip on taking legal action over the lack of BSL interpreters during the COVID briefings. I cannot miss the opportunity to mention the recent increase in Deaf people on our TV screens, seeing the number of Deaf actors/editors/reporters and campaigners on national television is just mind blowing!
