What's the Story, Ashley Storrie?
As comedian and writer Ashley鈥檚 dreams come true, her world is blown apart. Hear the story unfold from within her unhinged, autistic mind, with all its chaos, charm and characters.
Despite a complex childhood, and with her teenage years spent guiding the career of her controversial comedian mother Janey Godley whilst caring for her depressed autistic father, Ashley has just had the most surreal, dramatic, tragic鈥� and successful year of her life.
Her dream job was always in the magical world of TV with all its escapism, justice and happy endings. But the universe has a twisted sense of humour, and just as Ashley finally gets her big break, Janey is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Yay.
In this episode, we jump inside the brilliant and unhinged autistic brain of our 鈥渁dult perma-child鈥� protagonist and attempt to unspool this tragicomedy with some hilarious digressions en route.
