Michael Grade speaks to Juno Roche
Michael Grade talks to people who have taken great risks in their lives. When school teacher Juno Roche changed sex, she risked losing her job, her family, her friends and home.
Michael Grade has always been fascinated by those who choose to take great risks. Michael was born into an immigrant family who risked everything to find a new life in an unknown country.
In this programme for the interview series One to One, he talks to Juno Roche who also took the same leap of faith into a new world when she transitioned two years ago.
Juno says that in choosing to change sex the risk is all encompassing: 'You have no idea what awaits you on the other side. Will you be able to walk down the street without being labelled a freak? Will you have any friends or family who will accept you?'
Producer: Lucy Lunt.
