JMS recently completed the sequel to its Award-nominated production for Travel Independence Training Across the Nation (TITAN). The 2007 production was hailed by many teachers and local authorities as a breakthrough in teaching independence to young people with learning difficulties.

This production was in response to audience demand for further installments.The hero, Jack, has grown up a little but he's no wiser about the dangers he faces when travelling every day. His knack of narrowly missing accidents led many young viewers to suggest that surely one day Jack's luck must run out. So in this series of programmes it does... well almost!

As Writer/Producer Luke Witcomb remarked "Staging a succession of near-accidents convincingly without terrifying the audience, especially in that final cliff-hanger, was a real challenge." As a major addition to the training pack, this time we also shot a documentary featuring a number of young people who now live independently as a result of Titan training.
