Local Heroes ep.1

Local Heroes interviews the “unfamiliar familiar faces” of the community – the people we see everyday but never stop to get to know. With a blend of conversation, music and the sounds of the workplace, Esther Keane speaks to the locals who quietly keep the community running, as they discuss their stories, daily struggles and the neighbourhoods they work in.

This week she chats to Imran, a local dry cleaner from Ilford – they talk about his shop, his life and why Rod Stewart's "Young Turks" is the tune of his days.
