Harrison’s transmission is a rambling exploration of ethical compromise and political contradiction. Questioning how a person’s moral outlook and priorities may shift with age, she offers an insight into the life of a home-owning thirty-something in devolved Scotland and touches on topics as diverse as the inefficiencies of the UK rail system and the usefulness of Skype for long-distance love.
