Asperger's boy enters Mastermind
An 11-year-old Scottish boy with Asperger's Syndrome is set to take part in Junior Mastermind.
Andrew Cowan, from Glasgow, has won a seat on the BBC One quiz programme with his specialist subject of Star Wars.
The schoolboy suffers from the same form of autism as was featured in the best-selling book The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.
Andrew is one of 20 hopefuls aged between 10 and 11 who will appear on the programme, which begins on 16 May.
Asperger's Syndrome is a form of autism which affects the way a person communicates with and relates to others.
People with the condition usually have fewer problems with language than those with autism and many lead highly productive lives in specialised fields, such as academia.
