Paul's Dodgson - Home

4 Extra Debut. A fall forces Paul's Dodgson's 81 year old mum to consider selling the family home. What makes a home? Co-stars Pameli Benham.

When you're a child your home feels like the centre of the universe. As a teenager it starts to feel claustrophobic. You begin to hate all it represents with a passion and can't wait to leave.

Until one day, when you're faced with losing it for good, you find you're going to miss it with all your heart.

Paul Dodgson's drama is about what makes a home, what sustains a home and what happens when it's about to disappear forever.
