We talk to the actress Stefanie Martini, who plays the young Jane Tennison in a 1970s version of Prime Suspect. Starting tonight, it's set in 1973 and shows Jane as an officer learning the ropes and dealing with her first murder investigation. It gives some clues about how the older Detective Superintendent Tennison, famously played by Helen Mirren, came to be.
Another interview from our carer series: Naomi and her husband Mark live near Stafford with their 3 children, one of whom, Dylan, has cerebral palsy. Caz Graham went to meet Naomi and her family.
As we approach A Day Without Women on 8 March, we take a look at the history and impact of women's strikes in the UK and globally.
And in the next of our series of threatening women from ancient Greek plays, Mary Beard and Beaty Rubens continue to examine key women from ancient Greek drama and explore the ways in which they continue to inform debate about women in power. Today we hear about Lysistrata, a woman who attempts to end the Peloponnesian War by organising the women of Greece to stage a sex strike.
