Available for over a year

Mallory Towers, St Clare's and The Naughtiest Girl in School are still hugely popular today. Why are modern children still attracted to boarding school stories and how are modern authors reinterpreting the genre? How do you report historic abuse and assault? In the next part of our series on historical abuse and assault, we visit a Sexual Assault Referral Centre to view first-hand the process of reporting historical crime. Natalie Bennett, leader of the Green Party and the only party in England led by a woman, talks about her Party's policies. A long-term but reversible form of birth control for men, is said to be making "great progress", with clinical trials due to start next year. So what changes will a new contraceptive for men bring to the way couples deal with birth control?

Today, an invention that has come, gone, and come back again: the Teasmade. Presented by Jenni Murray Producer Beverley Purcell.
