Returning: You Can’t Ask That

Series two of You Can’t Ask That begins in early April.

This season tackles Blindness, Homelessness, S&M, Gambling, Ice Addicts, Children of Same-Sex Parents and more.

Providing a platform for marginalised and misunderstood Australians to answer anonymous online
questions with dignity and depth, You Can’t Ask That hit a cord with viewers, when it aired last year.
You Can’t Ask That confronts prejudice and discrimination in a highly entertaining format, offering genuine insight into the lives of Australians who live with labels, whose days are filled with the sidelong glances and silent disapproval of others: blind people, gambling addicts, people with Down Syndrome, refugees, homeless, S&M enthusiasts, people with facial differences, recent war veterans, ice users, suicide attempt survivors, children of same-sex parents and centenarians.

In tonight’s first episode, blind people answer the questions Australians want to ask, no matter how naïve, cheeky or downright offensive the questions, our guests answer with personal insight and surprising honesty.

When asked, “What do you actually see? Blackness?” Lauren Henley from Melbourne who lost her vision as the result of a car accident says “I’ve never been able to understand this but I see either bright pink or bright green.”

Preview episode Thursday April 6 at 9.30pm on ABC plus three episodes available on iview.

From episode two the series moves to Wednesday nights at 9pm.
