The glitz and glamour of London Fashion Week. How will the trends translate to the High Street. Plus the designers and models to look out for.

As the UK Independence Party prepares to announce a new leader, with Diane James the front runner to take over from Nigel Farage - what difference could she make to a Party that's failed to attract female voters .

If you've been inspired to get active by this summer's sport, would you think about learning to use the traditional tools of the Shaolin monks - sticks, swords and the Chain.

Plus advertising guru and diversity champion Cindy Gallop will join Jenni to discuss why she thinks white, male executives aren't trying hard enough when it comes to diversity. And explaining why she thinks sex is important to business - revealing how her own sex life inspired her latest digital company.

Presented by Jenni Murray
Producer Beverley Purcell.
