This groundbreaking show will feature six profoundly deaf people having their cochlear implants turned on live at the Manchester Royal Infirmary

This groundbreaking show will feature six profoundly deaf people having their cochlear implants turned on live at the Manchester Royal Infirmary.

For 37-year-old Fiona, who was born profoundly deaf, this could mean hearing her young children's voices for the first time, while Marion, 69, is desperate to hear her husband Ron tell her that he loves her again.

The results of cochlear implants can vary, but sharing the special moment these six brave people begin to hear again, surrounded by their families and friends, feels like an honour. Expect a night of high emotions. A signed version airs on 4seven simultaneously.
