Fi Glover presents four conversations between strangers.
This week: Andy and Jen share their experience of the Falklands War, living with PTSD and with guilt; Andy and JR discuss their struggles to start a family and the stigma attached to male infertility; Emma and Colin compare notes on fostering and adoption; and French ex-pats Richard and Kemal talk about adapting to the life and culture of the UK.
The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation lasts up to an hour and is then edited to extract the key moments of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in this decade of the millennium.
