Presented by Jenni Murray. Film maker Lorella Zanardi joins Jenni to talk about her campaign to see 'real' women on Italian television. Ninety years ago this month, the magazine 'Time and Tide' was published for the first time. A ground-breaking political and cultural journal that was the mouthpiece of the feminist movement during the inter war years. The number of multiple births is rising in this country and Professor Bill Ledger claims that the problem is being caused in part by the liberal use of cheap fertility drugs. He discusses his concerns with Jenni. Can family dynamics be affected by education? Do those who haven't been to university feel left behind by offspring or siblings who have?
