Behind the Smile is the extraordinary story of an ordinary, bright, lively, enthusiastic youngster's traumatic experiences.

Lisa Potts was working as a nursery nurse in a small primary school in Wolverhampton when a man with a machete ran into the playground and began attacking the children. Without thought for her own safety, Lisa courageously defended the children whilst receiving many injuries herself. She undoubtedly saved many lives that day and has since been awarded numerous tributes including the prestigious George Medal.
