Presented by Jenni Murray. Andrew Morton's new royal biography, do 'night bras' work?, feminism in Poland, and the 'Family Man' prison programme that aids offender rehabilitation.
Presented by Jenni Murray. Andrew Morton's new book on the Royal couple Kate and William ahead of Friday's big day. We examine the Polish Government's new commitment to gender equality and discuss the Night Bra! Paula Yates and Marilyn Monroe apparently wore one and we ask if it can really keep the wrinkles at bay and help defy gravity. And we hear about a prison programme called "Family Man" aimed at helping long term offender rehabilitation. Following our recent Mother and Son programme to mark Mother's Day, our reporter Felicity Finch has been to talk to Pat and her son Scott about the impact of the programme on their lives and family.
