A lucky windfall jump-starts his miserably unfulfilled life, and so
his incredible journey begins. A second prize win on 'spot the
ball' may not sound a life changing amount, but it's enough for
Terry Johnson to follow his dream. A dreary grey council estate
existence and an overbearing, money squandering shoplifter wife of
25 years - he's desperate to get away. Retirement approaching, this
flamboyant charmer and seasoned risk-taker isn't quite ready for
the quiet life - his free bus pass can wait He craves adventure and
excitement and finds both in equal measure - in Africa. Terry snubs
the usual tourist trail of safaris and beaches - he prefers to plan
a more extreme unorthodox route, 'off road' and dangerous. That's
the way he likes it. Risks galore, he gets himself into dangerous
and bizarre situations along the way - until he's caught with drugs
at Nairobi Airport. Four months of squalor in Nairobi remand
prison, he struggles to survive the harsh cramped conditions which
ravage his mind and body. Finally sentenced, he's off to a prison
notorious for a blatant disregard for human rights. All the time
his biggest challenge awaits him in England.
