Bennett Arron Is Jewelsh

Episode 1

Bennett describes how his grandparents came to settle in Port Talbot and how a young Anthony Hopkins used to light the fire for them every Saturday. He talks about growing up in a village where his was the only Jewish family and what it was like being the only Jewish child in school: 'They say that if you stand up to bullies they run away. No they don't, they punch you until you pass out'. Bennett also discusses his first job working for the local council, first as a gardener, then, for a day, as a gravedigger.
