I had heard he’s supposed to be on the spectrum, meaning he’s slightly autistic. I worked with a special ed teacher who told me that and she loved the show because of it. He seems more of a savant to me who never learned to socialize. Anyway, I love that show.
My Wife got me hooked on it about six months ago.
It’s one of only two PBS Shows I ever watch, the other being Antiques Roadshow.
Just saw an interview with the Actor that plays Bert on the show. He said in real life Martin Clunes loves Dogs and is very warm and personable. Great Actor, LOL...
