Death in My Life

on BBC One London

Fragments of Experience
"It's a good thing to get good and mad at God"
"What I'm afraid of about education - it's a dessication"
"Suddenly it hits you - you're meant to be happy"
"Death is the only thing that makes life tolerable"

Death meets us in various forms - a bereavement, the sudden death of a faculty (total deafness), or the denial of personal growth. Can it be accepted - even used - to increase life?
Elizabeth Hawes, Housewife; Graeme Bentham, Sculptor; Phoebe Hesketh, Poet; Jack Ashley, M.P.; Albert Rowe, Headmaster talk about what death has done to them-and how they have responded.
from the North
(Repeated tonight at 11.27)
