Episode Synopsis
Eighteen Floors Up - by Lilli Palmer
When Tash returns home after a long day, the broken lift in her tower block turns what should be a simple journey into a test of stamina, patience, and truth. With Mike by her side, the pair climb eighteen flights of stairs, uncovering differences in background, class, and perspective along the way.
As their conversation winds through Wandsworth’s past and present what begins as a grumble about gentrification and oat milk shifts into something far more personal. By the time they reach the top, confessions spill out as easily as exhaustion and an unexpected spark brings them closer than ever.
