Family Secrets

BBC Radio 4 - iPM, Family Secrets

A listener on how finding out the truth about his family changed his world

Family secrets feature a lot on iPM. The listener who hated her stepsons but couldn't tell anyone. The listener whose mum had secretly remarried. That time we heard from the wife and then the husband on the mistress. 

Here one listener, Steven, on how his family secret was kept from him for 50 years, and what happened when the truth came out.

We also hear from Jo, who has another suggestion for our outside broadcast. She explains what she's been doing in her area to reduce plastic use. 

And Broadcasting House's Paddy O'Connell reads our Your News bulletin.

Presented by Luke Jones. Produced by Cat Farnsworth.
