	Description:		Doctor Thomas Moors has understood the power of the voice since he was part of a boys' choir in Belgium. He took that knowledge with him into his career and now specialises in ears, nose and throat. And now he has done what some thought impossible - formed a choir for people in the UK who have had their voice boxes surgically removed, mostly because of throat cancer, through an operation called a laryngectomy. We also hear the stories of Shout at Cancer choir members Sara Bowden-Evans and Ian Bradshaw, and meet award-winning American filmmaker Bill Brummel. Bill brought his film crew to the UK to follow the choir as they prepare for a concert at an iconic London venue. He has a strong connection with the group, he had a laryngectomy in 2016. His film's called Can you hear my voice. Presenter: Mariana Des Forges Producer: Deiniol Buxton Picture: The Shout at Cancer choir Credit: Bill Brummel Productions
