Benjamin Zephaniah meets Richard Clothier

Benjamin Zephaniah discusses the despair of not being able to have a child with Richard Clothier.

Benjamin Zephaniah is infertile. This is not something you hear men readily admit. It has been a taboo subject. This has resulted in many men with fertility problems feeling isolated and guilt-ridden whilst also grieving for the child they cannot have by natural methods. Richard Clothier describes his experiences. Benjamin meets Richard鈥檚 wife Terri in the next programme. Producer Sarah Blunt
