Lives Less Ordinary - Looking for my son for 58 years, part 1

Download Looking for my son for 58 years, part 1

Bestselling writer Lesley Pearse's own story is wilder than any romance.

An agent once told Lesley Pearse to "write what you know", but her own story is more extraordinary than any of her bestselling novels. In this, the first episode of two, we follow her from playground storyteller to lost teenage girl in 1960s London, to brave single mum determined to go it alone.

Presenter: Asya Fouks Producer: Laura Thomas & Edgar Maddicott
