Europeans on the Edge

Episode 3: The Irish developer

Duration: 15 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 FMLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 LW

Lucy Ash meets chastened developer Simon Kelly, a victim of the property crash in Ireland and one of five Europeans whose lives reflect the crisis in the continent's economy. Kelly was once the poster boy in a world where property developers made huge sums of money, but now he's broke and belongs to a vilified breed. He talks to Lucy Ash about the effect the economic crisis is having in Ireland and how it's changed his own life - in some ways for the better.
