A Girl From Penrith Road
ROGER
56 years old, Father of three. This calming conversational episode takes a look into Roger's life and how Nikos Kazantzakis' Zorba the Greek made him aware of his own lack of spontaneity as well as shining a light on the importance of the small things in life, whether that be a freshly baked loaf of bread or a beautiful sunset. Roger candidly shares his inability to negotiate and the importance of a kitchen table wherever he dwells, whether that be physical or metaphorical. Roger shares the remarkable tale about his father, who after becoming a paraplegic as a result of a plane crash, was able to not only walk again, but able to have a family, after being told that would be impossible. The episode ends with a comment on the confusing drinking culture the U.K cultivates, and reality that unfortunately, life is not fair.
