Listen "S2, EP 02 | ‘Burbs Girl"
Episode Synopsis
Taking Care of Business, Episode 02:
If you’d come by this corner in the 1970s, the shop signs were different. Sue, who grew up in the suburbs, follows the ins and outs of a small shop in Upper Clapton, run by The Patel family. Judy adjusts to ‘cockney’ life at a newspaper depot in Homerton.

Enterprise. Family. Attitude. Sue Elliott-Nicholls takes us from N16 to E6 with people who’ve made our boroughs what they are today. We celebrate a shop, a common, a cemetery and an approach to life, to find a place in the family of things.
