Presented by Jenni Murray. In July this year there were celebrations when South Sudan became the world's newest country. But how much has the situation for women changed for the women of South Sudan since the peace agreement that was signed in 2005 ended the civil war that had ravaged the country for two decades? And what role did women play in the civil war? GCSE results are out today - should 16 year olds who have good enough GCSEs to continue with academic study also consider vocational training? Three air hostesses who worked for British Airways in different eras talk about the way the uniform - and the job - has changed. And the women's glossy magazine, She, which started in the mid-1950s, has just published its last ever issue. What are the reasons for its demise?
