What is a "normal" body size, and what is the definition of obesity? After hearing about anorexia and obesity this week we look for the middle ground. Women make up around three quarters of the population in care homes. We'll be talking to Diana Athill about life at her home and hearing from other residents about the gender balance at theirs. The midwife, Dr Agnes Gereb, has been under house arrest in Budapest for 16 months. She now faces the prospect of jail if the new president does not look favourably on her campaign against the criminalisation of home-births. Jenni speaks to one of Dr Gereb's lawyers. And a look at hand me downs - what gets passed down between generations of women? Presented by Jenni Murray.
