George and his family try to cope with his hearing loss. A scene is repeated, first from the family's viewpoint then as seen and actually heard by George - both with and without his hearing aid on. Some years later, his wife is much more understanding and ensures he is included at a dinner party. Now all the sound is presented as George hears it - including his tinnitus. George uses an analogue type aid, but digital users are likely to encounter some of the problems shown. Includes 16 page booklet.
