2 JUN 2020 · Lockdown Edition #5 Two talks on this show. One, with a British traveller who got stranded in Santa Cruz province when the Argentine government declared the nationwide lockdown. Becca Peachey tells her story just before being repatriated by the British government to London, after 40 days in “Patagonian quarantine”. And a great chat with John Rattagan, an Argentine-Irish-English “parrillero” in London, AKA, “Cacho Gómez”. Born and raised in Argentina, he moved to the UK back in the 90s and started the first genuine Argentine-styled grill house in that country. He talks a bit about his life and also about the current coronavirus situation in the British capital. For contacting us: qslrae@gmail.com
