Highlights from the Woman's Hour week. Will Young, a fan of the programme, talks about his music and sings from his new album. There's a look at the importance of breast cancer screening for the over 70s. After her success in "The Hour" Anna Chancellor talks about playing another journalist in a new play about the Duchess of Windsor. John and Penny Clough talk about the death of their daughter, killed by her ex-boyfriend while he was on bail. We ask whether dyslexia could ever be regarded as a gift rather than a disadvantage. And the artistic range of Stephanie Beacham - she's played alongside Marlon Brando and Ken Barlow - as she joins the programme to talk about her autobiography. Presented by Jane Garvey.
