The mountain between us
When Conrad Anker set off to climb a mountain in Tibet, he had no idea how it would connect him to a woman named Jenni. They tell Saskia Edwards their story of unexpected love.
In the 1990s, Alex Lowe and Conrad Anker were earning reputations as some of the best mountain climbers in the world. Jenni, Alex's wife, was a constant support. But after a fateful expedition on a mountain in Tibet, these three lives would become connected in a way they couldn't even imagine. This story was first broadcast on 5th May 2018.
A new documentary about the family's story, directed by Alex's son Max Lowe, is called Torn.
