michael's speech

the movie "the king's speech" keeps on receiving recognition both in terms of public and awards and seems to be destined to collect its share of oscars after winning seven BAFTA's, last sunday.
the movie's topic - the lifelong struggle of elizabeth II's father to overcome his stammering - recently created a new spark of interest over speech therapy.
a couple of days ago i found this article by michael palin (best known for his travel documentaries and as a member of monty python) in the daily telegraph - where he explains how his father inspired him to found the "michael palin's centre for stammering children".
