Available for over a year

The classic fish pie and how to make it as we add this latest recipe in our Cook the Perfect series. Sue Lawrence tells us why this mix of white fish and a creamy sauce is the ultimate comfort food. Ten years after military intervention in Afghanistan, two new reports released today highlight concerns about how women's rights will be safeguarded in a new era once international community troops are withdrawn. We talk to those involved. Mary Portas, one-time Queen of Shops, discusses her mission to become Queen of Frocks and why she's heralding a high street style that works for women, rather than girls. Author Laini Taylor on why she has an enduring fascination with angels and their role in the opening volume in her epic fantasy trilogy, Daughter of Smoke and Bone. Presented by Jane Garvey.
