Simon Rimmer:  I Was Absent For So Much

Welcome Back to The Apple and the Tree with our new host, Richard Coles! In Episode Seven of this new series, we're in Manchester to meet celebrity chef, restaurant owner and 2017 Strictly contestant Simon Rimmer and his daughter, sales and marketing specialist, Flo. In a deeply personal, funny and very moving conversation they talk about missing out on your child’s earliest years, the pleasures and pains of partying, being driven by ambition, family, loss, the redemptive grace of father/daughter relationships and so much more. There is nothing off limits. To get in touch just email [e-mail]. You can find us on Instagram and Tik Tok @appletreepod. Do let us know about your family stories - who knows, maybe we can meet next time.
