Husband & Wife Sentenced to Life

We are Simon & Lorra. A married couple. Mum & Dad to three kids... One in his 20s, one at uni, one fast approaching her teens. We love each other to bits but we also realise that we want to kill each other a lot. One day that quote will probably be used against one of us in a court of law. Each episode, we"ll chat about our marriage, love life, kids, London, relationships, anything relevant in the news and we"ll recommend anything we"ve seen, played, read or listened to. Contact us on

Husband & Wife Sentenced to Life ·

2022/04/21

To celebrate the centenary of our little podcast, Husband & Wife Sentenced to Life, we've done something special. We invited our son, Leo, in for a chat before he heads back to university in Bristol in a couple of days. We start with a couple of anecdotes that we've held back on telling each other. Then we get into the funny, emotional, honest and sometimes awkward chat with Leo. A lot of you listened to our daily podcast last year when we were taking Leo to Bristol from Dubai and how difficult
