Woman's Hour

Available for over a year

Presented by Jane Garvey. On Weekend Woman's Hour: Vanessa Redgrave talks about her career, life and loves - including her wedding to Franco Nero, the man she met all those years ago in Camelot. She tells how she's managed to get through the tragedy of the last year, losing her brother Corin, her sister Lynne, and of course her beloved daughter Natasha. The former model Gail Porter who became the poster girl for baldness after developing alopecia talks about her hair growing back and we talk about girl bands and female singers in bands. Harriet Harman the acting Leader of the Labour Party debates the possible changes in rape law which might give a defendant anonymity. We look at infrared or "thermal" breast screening and explore the claims that some shoes can make you fitter.
