Today is World Down Syndrome Day, an international platform for Down syndrome awareness. According to Down Syndrome International, today can, “Help raise awareness of what Down syndrome is, what it means to have Down syndrome, and how people with Down syndrome play a vital role in our lives and communities.” Not only did the organization help make World Down Syndrome Day officially recognized by the United Nations in 2012, they have also created a huge online presence, including this year’s Lots of Socks campaign, which help connect and inform people all around the globe.
Down syndrome is a condition in which an individual is born with an extra chromosome (number 21 to be specific, thus why it's celebrated on 3/21) — as defined by the National Down Syndrome Sociey, “This additional genetic material alters the course of development and causes the characteristics associated with Down syndrome.” Such characteristics include, “[an] experience [of]cognitive delays, but the effect is usually mild to moderate and is not indicative of the many strengths and talents that each individual possesses.”
In honor of World Down Syndrome Day, take a moment to recognize the many talents our favorite actors and celebrities with Down syndrome, and those who advocate for Down syndrome, as well. Enjoy!

History[edit]
The series was created by screenwriter Jimmy McGovern, known for his works on series such as Cracker and The Lakes; however was notable for being his first project for daytime television. A single series of five episodes was commissioned by the network, with guest stars in this series including Sheila Hancock, Lesley Sharp, Richard Armitage, Dervla Kirwan, Joanne Froggatt and Ian Hart.[2] Although originally broadcast in an early-afternoon slot, less than a month after their initial airing, the series was repeated to an evening audience, at 10:35pm on Sundays.[3] The reception was good enough for a second series to be commissioned. This series was extended to ten episodes.[4]
A third series was subsequently commissioned, with filming set to commence in January 2011, with a broadcast to follow in the Autumn of that year. Reece Dinsdale, Christine Bottomley, Dean Lennox Kelly, Paul Usher and Eva Pope were subsequently confirmed as guest stars for this series.[5] A fourth series swiftly followed, filming during the summer of 2012 for broadcast that November; however, due to unforeseen filming complications, broadcast was delayed until January 2013, becoming the first series to air outside of its regular November time slot. Series five followed in November 2013, with all five episodes being released on BBC iPlayer as a box set prior to broadcast, making it the first BBC television drama series to be released in this way.[6]
Series six and seven were commissioned together following the success of series five. Series seven was the first to be broadcast in the series new early spring time slot, airing across the final week of February 2016. Series eight began filming in July 2016, and broadcast earlier than expected, arriving in November 2016. This became the first series not to be broadcast across a single week, after 'Burden', the series' third episode, was removed from schedules on 9 November 2016 to accommodate ongoing coverage of Donald Trump's election asPresident of the United States.[7] Series nine saw the series return to its late winter/early spring time slot, airing during the first week of February 2018. Series ten, which was filmed during March and April 2018, followed in February 2019. The series was renewed for an eleventh and twelfth series, airing in 2020 and 2021 respectively.
