I hope positively surprised :) That's Paul Carter - he's a regular presenter on the BBC, particularly their tech show "BBC Click". Here's a nice interview (https://disabilityhorizons.com/2019/09/paul-carter-journalis...) he gave to Disability Horizons a few years ago about his experiences.

Inclusion. In the UK, especially on the BBC, there is a lot of inclusion. We don't tend to hide or limit people based on disabilities or differences. There is a fully blind guy that does a lot of political reporting for example. It can be a little bit box ticky some times, but if people of all walks of life are represented, differences are less outside of the norm, I guess?

Could it be his his degree in journalism and his years of experience as a journalist?

I don't think this is just due to lack of good paper making techniques, it's also an aspect of physical security that's involved.
