**** This programme was suggested by Heather Everley as part of BBC Radio 4 Extra’s All Request Weekend ****

Grandmother Kathleen Riley and her friend Mira Chatterjee are not the kind of 70-year-olds to sit back and watch their world collapse.

Instead, they intervene to bring back the Goddess Culture through the medium of the radio.

Kathleen's granddaughter, Breda is not convinced…

Starring Julie Christie, Liz Kelly and Leena Dhingra.
