We worked with the UK Council on Deafness to cast a mother and daughter who not only had a lovely natural rapport on camera, but also liked fish fingers.

Then an Oscar winner turned up: Maisie Sly, a six year old from Swindon, who had won such acclaim for her role in the short film, ‘The Silent Child’.

Maisie and her Mum, both profoundly deaf, happily got through a number of fish fingers on the shoot and also gave us a memorable performance.
