Hi Charlotte,
You could do a lot worse than collect episodes of "The Office", where David Brent is consistently crass and insensitive towards everyone, including disabled people. http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/theoffice/clips/
The Disability Rights Commission made a brilliant film which asked the question, what if disabled people were "the norm"? It was called "Talk" - I have a copy, but you may still be able to get it from somewhere, such as a library. http://83.137.212.42/sitearchive/DRC/citizenship/talkvideos/index.html

I just found this on the Internet... http://www.disabilityfilms.co.uk/
I don't know of any more, but I'm sure someone else will.
Good luck.
Helen

Subject: Film Clips
Hello,
My name is Charlotte Bowen and I'm a Disability Equality Trainer. I'm
researching some new training material. Could anyone suggest any films, TV
programmes or youtube films/interviews that they've seen that highlight
disability issues. Also, any comedy clips (they could be really unfunny and
offensive). I'm putting together a collection of clips to illustrate
disability equality issues - I'm looking for a range of ideas, so all
suggestions welcome.
Please email me [log in to unmask]
I'm new to this email list and I'm really enjoying all of the debates and
information sharing, thank you!
Many Thanks,
Charlotte
