Are children missing out? The National Audit Office and the Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health have raised concerns about services for children this week. Anne Longfield, Children's Commissioner for England joins us to discuss what she thinks is happening. We hear about why incontinence affects fifty per cent of women during their lives and what they can do to improve their pelvic floor. With Burn's Night tomorrow, was Robert Burns an early feminist or an old sex pest? - we debate. And, we hear about Christine's discovery in our series on family secrets.
