"There She Goes" is about severely learning-disabled 9-year-old Rosie and her dad Simon, mum Emily, and brother Ben. All the stories and characters are drawn from the real-life experience of writer Shaun Pye, whose daughter was born in 2006 with an extremely rare and, to date, undiagnosed chromosomal disorder.
Each episode shines a light on day-to-day life with Rosie--unique experiences from simply trying to take her to the park to trying to explain that every day isn't her birthday. A second timeline in 2006 shows the effect having a severely disabled child had on the family unit; how it threatened to disintegrate them but ultimately brought them even closer.
