A Bristol couple, married for 45 years, explain why they're determined to stay together following one them undergoing gender reassignment.

Steff Barnett kept her wish to become a woman secret for most of her life, from everyone but Lynne. The couple met aged 16 and have opted to stick together, even though it means no intimate physical contact between them.

Plus a poem defining the slang word "Fam", written and performed by Caleb Femi, former Young People's Laureate for London.

Multi Story is a BBC podcast, presented and produced by Becca Bryers.
