'72, transgender and finally ready to talk ...'

Jack Murley

Available for over a year

Living a lie can eat you up inside - but that's exactly what one ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Somerset listener did for more than 4 decades. In fact, Claire from North Petherton spent almost half a century living two different lives - one as the father and husband the outside world knew, and another as the woman she knew she was born to be. Claire has never spoken publicly about being transgender - but finally got the confidence after hearing some of the stories ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Somerset has done on LGBT+ life in the county. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Somerset's Jack Murley has been to meet her.
