À propos de ce contenu audio

Most of us have a picture in our minds when we hear the word 'immigrant'. For some it sounds like a dirty word. For others, it means someone who needs help. Or an inspiring hero making a 'contribution'. Whatever picture you conjure, this weekly interview podcast with your host Christine Bacon is here to transform that into something way more interesting. Guests are a mixture of celebrities, public figures and regular Janes and they all share the unique experience of moving across borders and making a life for themselves in the UK.

    • 4.8 Usman Khalid: I'm not smashing it, I'm below average
      Oct 31 2025

      Usman Khalid is from Lahore in Pakistan. He arrived in the UK in 2007 and has been living in the London suburb of Walthamstow since 2012 and opened Haven Coffee in 2021. I chatted with him over coffee at the café, so you will hear some background noise of passing traffic and pedestrians.

    • 4.6 Inês Belmonte: After being here for a while, I realised I had things to lose
      Oct 17 2025

      Inês Belmonte is a performer and theatre-maker. She moved to the UK from Portugal at the age of 11. She’s now 22. We discussed the loneliness of being a child who goes to school every day not speaking the language, discovering self-expression in drama classes, the importance of friendship and what it means to have a secure immigration status. Her show Where Judas Lost His Boots… And Other Words will be performed at The Space Theatre on November 9th and November 16th as part of Voila! Festival.
