Powerful women and seduction27 July 2004

Are powerful women more predatory?

The new surgeon in BBC One's hospital drama, Holby City has been there for only a few episodes, but has already seduced two members of staff and approached a third - and she's a woman. But is there more to Connie Beauchamp's character than that?

Jenni discusses with the Executive Producer of Holby City, Kathleen Hutchison and Christine Geraghty how far this depiction of a woman in power reflects what's going on in the real world.
