Presented by Jane Garvey. An overhaul is expected to be recommended in how the care of older people and adults who need support in England is paid for when a report is published later today. With women expected to live longer, what will it mean for them and for those who make up the majority of carers? As part of our Cook the Perfect season, Michelin-starred chef Angela Hartnett shows Jane how to get the flavour and texture of a risotto just right, and adds a twist by using red wine and chorizo. An apple for teacher? End of year gifts have become an annual ritual and today are more likely to range from expensive vouchers to a bottle of champagne. We hear what teachers think of them and discuss the playground politics of deciding to opt out. As an organist Dame Gillian Weir ranks as one of the finest performers in the world. Through her performances with leading orchestras and conductors, she has succeeded in transforming the image of the organist. Hear her in conversation and listen to her stirring music.
