\"\"<\/a>Desert Island, a three part radio drama by John Casey. Directed by Sin\u00e9ad O\u2019Loughlin.<\/p>\n

Trapped by her size, Trish Collins has to rely on her ne\u2019er do well husband as her link to the outside world. With one good son, the other a violent thug, she never sees her grandson and her caustic brother-in-law is about to re-enter her life. Her happy memories are fading as she sits in the same room listening to old records waiting for something to change. Perhaps it\u2019s time she made some changes herself.<\/p>\n

PART III<\/strong><\/p>\n

We find out why John came home from London, while Trish is slowly making some healthy inroads with an unlikely source of motivation. Noel and Trish take an honest look at their marriage. Shane\u2019s partner Steph has enough of his volatile ways.<\/p>\n
