Britain's Got Talent winner and viral comedy juggernaut Axel Blake talks struggling with his early private school education, how undiagnosed Dyslexia and ADHD affected his behaviour, how he ended up getting into a physical fight with a teacher, being suspended multiple times and how it all culminated in him doing a prison sentence. He talks about how he was determined to never end up back in prison and how that stint helped him really ask fundamental questions that lead to his later success, wowing Simon Cowell, winning Britain's Got Talent and achieving major social media success.
