Too Clever By Half

Stephanie Calman explores the stories of women who've been in relationships where there's an intellectual mismatch. From 2011.

Stephanie Calman explores this, through the stories and experiences of several women.

Producer: Karen Gregor

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in August 2011.
