Rory can be seen in the BBC3 documentary Professor Green: Suicide and Me on Tuesday 27th October at 9pm. The documentary which is presented by rapper Professor Green investigates Green's father's suicide and his journey to understand why 6,000 people (mostly men) take their own lives each year in the UK. Rory talks about his research on the psychology of suicide in the documentary. During the film, Professor Green encourages men to talk about their emotions and seek help.
