Inga Bejer Engh, sperm donation, Astrid Bonfield and Stealing Sheep

Available for over a year

On the first day of his trial for the murder of 77 Norwegians last year, Anders Breivik gave a Nazi-style salute. The Chief Prosecutor, Inga Bejer Engh responded by walking over and calmly shaking his hand. It demonstrated that Bejer Engh was not going to be provoked and the trial would be conducted in a fair and reasoned fashion. She will be speaking to Jenni about the prosecution and about the implications of Breivik's twenty one year sentence, for Norway's penal system. Sperm Donation: Should a man be able to donate sperm without his wife's consent? Or should it be treated as a joint 'marital asset'? To discuss the current assessment that takes place, and the ethical issues involved, Jenni is joined by Dr. Allan Pacey, Fertility Expert at the University of Sheffield and Dr Anna Smajdor, Lecturer in Medical Ethics, University of East Anglia. In December this year, the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund is being wound up. Over the past fifteen years it has awarded over £100 million to organisations who help the vulnerable and those who have been marginalised in society. Jenni is joined by Chief Executive - Dr Astrid Bonfield - who will be giving her only broadcast interview to Woman's Hour. Liverpool has always had a vibrant music scene; a guaranteed legacy for the city that spawned The Beatles. But its music is traditionally male-dominated - bands like Gerry & The Pacemakers, The Lightening Seeds, The La's and The Searchers all came from Merseyside. The city is now home to an all-girl, pysch-folk band called Stealing Sheep, and they're moulding a brand new Merseyside sound. Presented by Jenni Murray. Produced by Susannah Tresilian.
