Anneka Rice: Hong Kong, China
Listen now
Description
Anneka wants to take Shaun back to the place and time that made her: the intense rush of Hong Kong in the 1980’s, where she lived and worked a variety of improbable jobs from kung fu film dubbing to jeans modelling. But Shaun is not sure that intense rushes are for him, although he is drawn to the Blade Runner-like skyscrapery vertiginous appeal of the place. And also to the pavement chicken. Resident geographer, historian and comedian Iszi Lawrence has lived there too and tries to help him see through the smog. Your Place Or Mine is the travel series that isn’t going anywhere. Join Shaun as his guests try to convince him that it’s worth getting up off the sofa and seeing the world, giving us a personal guide to their favourite place on the planet. Producers: Beth O'Dea and Sarah Goodman Your Place or Mine is a BBC Audio production for BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds.
