Cathy Went Home: Survivor from the Slums - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The story of Barry Bailey's life is one made especially vivid by his experiences of growing up in Hockley Brook and appearing in breakthrough BBC television play, Cathy Come Home.

'When I look at those scenes, I glimpse myself and others I knew, and it's so evocative I can almost smell the streets. It's fair to say it proved a huge motivator, helping me dig myself out of there, and build the life I have,' says Barry.
Barry later joined the navy, built a successful career and created a family of his own with his beloved wife, Anita.

'My early life was one of extreme poverty. Yet I feel like a very lucky man. That's because those years shaped the man I became.'
