Jenni Murray presents. In our ongoing series Women in Business, we look at making your product or service stand out from the crowd with Millie Kendal of the make-up duo Ruby & Millie. The colourful textiles of iconic designer Lucienne Day set a trend in home-furnishing in fifties Britain. A new exhibition celebrates her work and looks at her influence on contemporary design. In Iran, Sakineh Ashtiani remains under sentence of death for adultery. How might the appointment to the country of a UN Special Rapporteur to investigate the abuse of human rights affect her case? Fictional diaries such as EM Delafield's Diaries of a Provincial Lady have an enduring appeal. We look at why the domestic trials of their authors provide such a rich seam of material.
