We worry that he will be looked at differently and not be accepted in a not so direct way. He is a warm and respectful l person and any experience I have had with people in TV has always been positive, friendly and accepting but i am only there 6 days a year to have fun with a few friends.

I’ve always been told it wouldn’t be a problem and I believe he would enjoy himself but would welcome honest opinions.

Thank you
You should be fine, just remember people here are like people anywhere,
