Richard Orr reads the final episode of David Park's haunting story of a grieving father coming to terms with his loss.

He stops at the Angel of the North and climbs up to the monument where he deletes a photo and resists the urge to submit to the snow.

As the light fades he takes a new photograph and continues with renewed hope.
