Marina Chapman
In Bradford, Yorkshire grandmother Marina Chapman tells Hardeep Singh Kohli her dramatic tale of survival in the wild against all odds.
Marina Chapman is a grandmother from Yorkshire with a truly exceptional story to tell - a "jungle book" style tale of survival in the wild against all odds. Born in 1950's Colombia, Marina's story starts when she was dramatically abducted around the age of five and abandoned deep within a region of dense tropical forest. The story of what happened next is quite literally beyond belief but it's a story that Hardeep Singh Kohli travels to Bradford to hear over a Sunday lunch of Colombian style food and flavours.
Producer: Catherine Earlam.
