Teaser - The Bipolar Express

The irreverent sequel to our AIB award-winning 2015 documentary 'Bipolar Express' aired for the first time on Radio Television Hong Kong July 13, 2019. Produced and presented for RTHK Radio 3 by Sadie Kaye ('Miss Adventure') 'As Bad As It Gets' shines a spotlight on the lives of an eclectic mix of artists and professionals who secretly or openly struggle with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Guests include showman Mat Ricardo, artist-activist Charlotte Farhan, poet Neil Hilbourne, lovable locksmith Billy Archer, and psychiatrist Dr. Barry Connell. In a nod to the Jack Nicholson movie 'As Good As It Gets', the 30-min doc is cheekily titled 'As Bad As It Gets'.

The doc was closely followed by the launch of the 'Mental Ideas Podcast' as a weekly strand of the '123 Show' on RTHK in April 2020.
