Jay's BBC documentary follows his journey to literacy as he faces the challenge of learning to read as an adult. Many watching at home were moved to tears, particularly while watching a scene that saw Jay reading a book to his 15-year-old daughter.
One person said on social media: "Jay's story is inspirational to anyone struggling thinking it's too late to start again. Reading to your daughter for the first time, tears ran down my face at that poignant moment for you."
Another wrote: "#Jaybladeslearningtoreadat51 was so interesting and wholesome. When he read the book to his daughter at the end I cried happy tears."
