Yes, Really! – Kate Turkington
Kate Turkington discusses her book 'Yes, Really!'. (Camera & editing: Darlene Creamer)
There are a lot of good things about getting older.
When you’re young you want everyone to like you and to make an impression.
When you’re old you don’t give a damn.
Kate Turkington is fearless and fun, even now in her 80s. Actually, more so! From the war-worn East End in London to raising a young family in the jungles of Nigeria and then building a career as one of SA's most loved broadcasters, Kate's story is remarkable and rambunctious.
You'll laugh. You'll cry. You will cheer. And you may well be shocked.
