4. '...I've started writing a will...'
Daliso Chaponda is back for a fourth series of his funny, informative and thought provoking Rose D'Or nominated show.
In this new series, Daliso is in a more philosophical mood. We find him working through his thoughts, feelings, and opinions by sharing his stories with a live audience in his hometown of Manchester.
Episode 4 - '...I've started writing a will...'
A family discussion about his father’s health gets Daliso contemplating his own mortality, so in this final episode he leaves us with his thoughts on ageing, how he’d like to be remembered and what he'll leave behind. He chats to the audience about debt and thinks of ingenious ways to clear his own arrears. And, heartened by his father finally accepting, and even encouraging his career choice, he ends the series with an inspiring speech.
